    I know a lot of people are nostalgic for the "amateurism" fantasy, but a system where the schools and conferences are responsible for paying everyone is going to be a lot more fair, reasonable, and regulated.
    There will always be money under the table. If all schools can offer an athlete $50,000/ year then the best players will go to the schools that make the duffel bag full of cash appear in the backseat of their new charger that appeared in their driveway the week before.

    Who said anything about capping at $50,000? Their market value, at least at the P5 level, will be way more than that.
