The Supreme Court will hear a landmark antitrust case brought by student-athletes against the National Collegiate Athletics Association in a case that could upend the college sports business model.
The high court said Wednesday it will hear appeals filed by the NCAA and one of its member conferences over a May decision that found the NCAA’s limits on player compensation violate antitrust laws.

I've gone back and forth with this issue in my head a zillion times over the years
Today I stand -
A free education is enough with the chance to shine for an opportunity to go pro
Now I hear the argument - well this universities are making millions upon millions off of these student atheletes
Good for the universities
Reward the student athlete with a free education, free meals, free laundry privileges, etc - that is their pay

Also, regular college students are allowed to get jobs. Seems a bit unfair.

If you're not up for a free education and free food and laundry - don't play sports and concentrate on your schoolwork which is the real meaning of college anyway

Seems to me like we're making the student athlete a giant martyr here
Well Boo Hoo
Don't play sports then
