COLLEGE ATHLETICS
The NCAA announced it is moving forward with a plan to allow college athletes to earn money for endorsements and a host of other activities involving personal appearances and social media content.
It's a big deal - ''unprecedented,'' Ohio State President and NCAA Board of Governors chairman Michael Drake called it. But there are important details to be sorted out before NCAA membership votes on legislation in January and there are plenty skeptical lawmakers and lawyers watching.
While athletes will be able to cash in on their names, images and likenesses as never before, the money won't come from the NCAA, schools or conferences.
