That’s the problem. They shouldn’t be worried about profit. The fact that education and health are completely focused on profit in the US really demonstrates how far we’ve gone down a wrong path. (I’m not a talkie or even a leftist for the record, just hate unfettered capitalism)

Yes there was a lawsuit about colleges not treating players like employees. They should be employees.

No, that too but colleges should be places for education, not making money and not higher investments in athletics.
