The college system has never really made sense ethically or legally and it doesn’t exist anywhere else.Most if not all of these kids had “a choice” actually multiple choices.
The stories of kids not having money to eat no matter how frequent or infrequent is really disheartening.
The athletes should have had meals and housing minimum.
My son says the pre made meals (possibly provided by coaches/trainers/nutritionists) are taking up his whole fridge and they have to battle for space lol.
As for NIL like many things, it is a mixed bag.
In other countries if you have talent you can make money. Luka was a teenager playing professionally in Europe. We have this multi billion dollar industry that they now have to try to fix to keep making billions.
