the short answer is very simple. they are being taken advantage of big time. the reason is very simple. THEY HAVE NO UNION, NO COLLECTIVE REPRESENTATION.
just think of what pro players would b making without a union. in the last collective bargaining agreement the JUDGE RULED that owners had tried to hide $4 billion to be used during potential lockout. if no union, owners would be screwing players left and right. THIS IS WHAT IS HAPPENING IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL.
UT and bama (a&m to sumlimn) were willing to pony up additional millions to coaches but players will get nothing more. manziel was worth $10 million minimum to a&m this year. he got $25,000.
