Do NCAA revenue athletes receive adequate compensation for the revenue their hard work and talent helps to create?
That question has been at the heart of the debate regarding NCAA reform for the past decade plus. And the general question of amateurism has dogged the NCAA for its entire existence.
For most involved in the discussion, your answer is probably based upon your personal morals. Maybe you think that players deserve more money because any situation where the people creating value don’t directly receive that value offends you. Maybe you think that a scholarship is fair value in return for the revenue produced by revenue sports.
