Concur. Those that do however, have an unlimited pool of slave labor to pull from (well not unlimted...but you get my point).
Some get VERY rich off of college athletics...and it's not the athletes that sell the tickets or create the bidding wars for the broadcast rights. To me it's unconscionable that the athletes are not compensated.
