This is a hot button topic, since it comes around every year. Sadly players like LF7 and others I've learned had to give up their businesses to play college football. I remember hearing about a basketball player selling tee shirts and it created a bit of a stir.

If you are nit going to pay these athlete-students at least alliw them to keep their businesses or TREAT GHEM IN THE SAME MANNER AS THOSE ON ACADEMIC SCHOLARSHIPS in regards to making money for themselves


Guessing you didn't matriculate secondarily. Are you suggesting that a free, four-year education with free food is not payment?

Disagree about straight paying them, but I have a problem with prohibiting them from selling their personal property. I think they should have same rights as any other person. I don't think they should be prohibited from selling autographs, which is their personal property.

No problem with LF7 or any player for that matter selling shitty apparel at 3 times its value. Same thing companies like Southern Marsh are doing.

player A has a tshirt business and can sell too high roller boosters for 1k a shirt. Sounds fair cuz this is a way for big time boosters to give benefits.
