I lived in many shitty 1 bedroom apartments after I graduated college, not to mention the crap holes I lived in while in college. You ignore the thousand's of $$$$ it costs the average joe to get a college education. The players are student athletes who have their tuition & housing paid for, get fed well and have the best health care. They are getting paid.


You also couldn't run a 4.3 and didn't risk life-altering injuries on a football while a school and community made millions with you face on the cover of their marketing materials.

So the school is giving you additional exposure on Marketing Materials and you are going to complain about it?

Out of 105 players (85 scholarship players + 20 walkons), how many fit your description?

And then we have title 9. Let's not even pretend congress will ever change the law, especially in today's climate, to only pay male athletes in revenue sports.

I see this crap all the time and I would like you to show me where millions are being made by using a likeness of any college player. If it ever happened that some considerable money was ever paid to a Community for the likeness of a player I want you to provide that information or stop spreading nonsense.
