re: Breaking News: NCAA to allow players to be paid for names, images, likeness

Good post. I personally can't see this providing any sense of parity for the sports it will no doubt affect in the future. The schools would have to add another Admin Dept just to handle the contracts and to keep track of the income generated by each student-athlete. Sounds like an administration and accounting nightmare.

I agree, it's going to affect the future and balance structure of college athletics in one way or another...perhaps in a way we cannot predict.

It really becomes complex when you begin to think about all the considerations.

One thing I thought of was how to set prices? Do players need to have their own agents or lawyers to work with companies and/or the school? Perhaps that can be done through the AD, but that again leads to more people schools need to hire in order to keep up with it all.
