I see them playing college ball/sports as an internship.
Some internships you don't get paid, but the company benefits off you by free labor. Internships are used for people to get a foot in the door (i.e. The draft for these students), right?
But these players in school, they get paid in different ways.
Food Stipends
Tutors
Scholarships to the school (I mean, lets be honest, half of these players at Ivy Leagues couldn't even get in)
Who's fault is it that they don't try hard to benefit from the academics of college, theirs.
