    This is going to help schools like Jesuit and Central Catholic. They can now pretty much pay players to go there.

    Too young. Its helping spread the disease of social media addiction.
    Kids are growing up too fast and they are not able to handle it.
    Marketing is out of control. Children should not be a commodity.

    Jesuit and Central Catholic has more-or-less been paying for athletes through tuition waivers, access to club teams, private lessons, etc. so this is unlikely to change the imbalance of power more than it already is.

    People don't want to believe that high school sports hasn't been pure for a long time, but sadly, I can assure you, it hasn't been.

    Good thing LeBron didn't have to deal with marketing, name/image/likeness benefits, and social media...

    This news doesn't make sense to me.

    As far as I know OnlyFans accounts have been available in Oregon for some time already.

    ALOT has changed in almost 20 years.

    This has potential to now have the world tell teens they suck, etc.
    social media can be vile.

    watch teen suicides increase as they go to try to promote themselves thinking they are the shit, to find out the world thinks they suck.
    Remember, most high school athletes never make a college team, let alone a pro sports contract.
    I see many many teens finding out/being told very harshly via social media l, that they suck.

    I am pretty sure he paid them to be on their 'fencing' team, although it must be hard to fence when you're wielding such a small rapier.
