The way things are going College football and basketball players will be getting paid. I may take 10 years or more, but I think its coming.
Also, even if the athletes aren't getting paid now, their performance at stats in college have a direct impact on the very competitive financial offers they are trying to land. When the coaches are making millions (while PhD professors are making a tiny fraction of that), you know there is a ton of money involved and at stake.
Do they compensated if they get a career killing injury?
