    I wonder if this is the result of the O'bannon suit against the NCAA.

    Is he suing for kids to get paid?

    Because if so, while this maybe for a entirely different thread, I would agree with him. NCAA makes millions (more likely billions) from athletes and they can't get even 1% of that money?

    It's about the NCAA using athletes likeness for profit.

    I'm sure there are better links, but this was one of the first few when I googled O'bannon suit vs NCAA.
