While I see the logic behind NCAA athletes getting compensated other than scholarships, I think it would have a far more negative impact than positive. If the NCAA goes this route and you think you have a lot of haves and have nots now, just wait. Regardless of the sport, the schools with money and large donors will get all the top athletes. The kids could basically look at it as a job and choose the school that they will make the most money in endorsements at. How will that work for any of the smaller colleges?!
