Also, I'm (somewhat) okay with the universities not paying these athletes, but they should be allowed to get a job (and if it pays $25,000 a year to be a security guard at the local dealership, so be it) or sell their autographs. The NCAA prevents them from making ANY money, even if it's off their own likeness.

they get a stipend already, they get medical, and tutors for free. Most of the kids wouldn't be able to get admitted to 95% of the schools they play for if it wasn't for their ability to catch a ball.
They need to shut up and realize that they're kings on campus, they can do whatever they want, they have the ground that they walk on worshiped. But they're too stupid to realize that only 1.5% of the players in NCAA football actually make it to the NFL and instead of pissing their degree away that they could actually do more than most in their families have done.
