Why are these changes needed right now for the ncaa . I mean, i suppose it sounds like were going to start treating Student Athletes like pro athletes in this country so settlement has been a very long time colleague the reality is that big Time College Sports earns billions of dollars every year for these schools and the only one who docx been able to benefit for this has been the athlete This Is The Life Trends for the opportunity for these Student Athletes to share in the revenues theyve been generating .
