The more research I do into this, the less clear the answer becomes. To me, the simple answer is "yes, of course" Except I mean only those athletes that have helped make literally billions of dollars for their schools. That limits said athletes to essentially, Mens Football and Mens Basketball.
Some things in the way (fair or not) Title IX makes it illegal. Duke lacrosse makes more for their school than Hillbilly State Football does for theirs, how would we decide who gets paid what?
Some nonsense the NCAA needs to stop pretending: they would lose money and that the student's education is their compensation.
I have no easy answers (and the long one is boring) just want to stimulate debate and conversation.
