[QUOTE="Technut1990, post: 678848, member: 3774"] This entire conversation fails to recognize the word barter. Is it not a form of bartering when a kid says I’ll bring my talent to your school ( for which the school will monetarily benefit via ticket a other sales) in exchange for a free education from which the student will financially benefit throughout his or her entire life ? The relationship is between the student and the school isnt it ? Payment for value is up to the parties. School funding is a problem in all this too. If UGA pays athletes via state funding, be it tax breaks or fees then why shouldn’t Valdosta St get the exact same resources so they can pay student athletes and enhance their sports programs ( meaning make them more lucrative) I mean if my neighbor helps paint my house in exchange for a case of beer does he then have legal claim to a % of the sale of my house ? Does he owe me retroactively for the beer I gave him if he decides 3 years afterwards that he wants 10% of the sale because I profited off his work ? By the same token dont all the contractors have a claim on my house sale if they built it ? [/QUOTE]
