Big news hit this week, as Gene Smith will co-chair a committee that is going to study the issue of allowing college athletes to profit off their own likeness. At a place like Ohio State, where Gene Smith is athletic director, or Notre Dame, where he played, that is huge news. These football factories will certainly benefit from the ability of third parties paying players. How that affects MAC football is a bit of a grey area that will certainly be touched upon by me and fellow Hustle Belt writers.
However, this particular post is how it is going to affect MAC women’s basketball.
