[QUOTE="forensicbuzz, post: 800731, member: 198"] I understand your position, but this whole conversation is primarily focused on basketball and football, as those two sports are going to be impacted the most. Granted, this opens opportunities for other athletes, but that's not the focus. We're discussing those who have 100% scholarships, including cost of attendance stipends. I think the thought is that the athletes are grateful to get a full scholarship and not have to pay for school in general. They'll be a scholar-athlete somewhere, and without that scholarship, they probably wouldn't have the same opportunity to attend college, period. Most of these scholar-athletes are leveraging their physical abilities for someone else paying for their education. There is tremendous value to that. I think there will be a very small percentage of student-athletes that will significantly benefit from the NIL proposition, but because it is in place, unscrupulous programs (which is most, if not all of them) will leverage this to provide themselves with an unfair competitive advantage. That is in direct contradiction to what the NCAA is supposed to be about. [/QUOTE]
