Half scholarship is better than no scholarship. Like I said if you’re on the tennis team or even the baseball team the benefit is being a college athlete especially with baseball
Swimming starts first week of September and ends late March. 30 fricking weeks straight. Just north of 600 hours of training. The average scholarship is 31%. That's under $25 an hour average for out of state kids and under $13 for in state kids

Good, it’s long overdue. Make them employees and not students (thus resolving the “pay other sports” issue) and get a CBA. The NCAA, conferences, and schools have taken advantage of unpaid labor for too long. It was one thing when it was a bunch of students getting together to play a silly little game, but it hasn’t been that in many years. It is a billion dollar organization that pulls ratings on national television.
NIL, as it was supposed to be, was a fine idea. It was always heinous that guys could be told they cannot profit off of their OWN name. However, with no guidelines as to how it was implemented in a competitive environment, it has become a mess.
Contracts, salary caps, etc. are the only way to fix it and achieve some form of parity. Rip the bandaid off, form the Super League, and let’s just get that started instead of this slow burn towards that inevitability.

The revenue used to pay players (when this happens) should come directly from the money the conference gives to the universities from these massive TV deals.
