For 115 years, the National Collegiate Athletic Association has been tightening its grip on what became the multibillion-dollar college-sports industry, with the lucrative annual men’s basketball tournament as its flagship.
In the next few months, however, the NCAA stands to lose control of its empire’s future over an issue its member schools long hoped to avoid: athlete compensation. College athletes have historically been classified as “amateurs,” even as they helped generate billions for their colleges and universities and made millionaires of their coaches. NCAA rules have long capped athletes’ compensation at little more than tuition, room and board.
But public sentiment that once supported the existing model has reversed, and long-silent athletes have become loud critics of the system. Numerous players marked the start of this year’s NCAA tournament by tweeting “#NotNCAAProperty.” The tension has created a scramble to define the future of college athletics. State and federal politicians in both parties have proposed dozens of bills that would let college athletes earn money from their name, image and likeness—a step that is forbidden under current NCAA policy. A handful of state laws have already passed, including one in Florida that takes effect July 1. The NCAA itself has called for federal legislation to override a chaotic patchwork of state oversight.
And the referees should be investigated for Racketeering. There were a number of outcome-changing calls/non-calls.

lainehiggins17 What about the ncaa’s use of the shameful language of the 13th amendment? Comparing athletes to prisoners? Surely the ongoing legal challenges to that argument deserve a mention in a story about an epic “showdown over player compensation” NotNCAAProperty PlayersNotPrisoners

All athletes should be allowed to be paid. NCAA only wants to protect its monopoly and revenue stream, not players.
