The only solution that will ever work is a reciprocity-clause between the NFL and the NCAA that says a player that receives inappropriate benefits as an amateur will be penalized @ the next level (NFL). To be able to feel no penalty after years of breaking the rules is bullshite.
Of course, what makes more sense is to give p[layers a stipend that allows them to live the college-life of every other kid in college. Jesus, I am so sick of this *look* at college athletics.
And FYI, *no*, women's basketball, track and field, badminton, tennis, etc are not the same as football. Football makes money (in the SEC). Run this like a for-profit venture and the issues go away.

And to clarify my point, pick a measure that makes sense. Average the 'free-money/mom & dad $' that the top 20% of students get at each individual institution and that should be what revenue-producing players get per month as a stipend across all of the individual NCAA football programs.
If the average 'bama upper-middle-class coed gets $2850 in support-benefits then that is what the players should get.
Anyway, these kids (at real football schools) are helping generate a shite-ton of $ but they are too busy with football obligations to work and make $. There has to a better way.
