[QUOTE="JogginFrog, post: 2707142, member: 4994"] I keep wondering why colleges don't agree to take money earned from the use of athletes' images/licensing/merchandising and put it into a fund to cover long-term injuries. Seems like an obvious way to protect the increasingly shaky concept of amateur student-athletes. But, greed, I guess. Shouldn't happen in KL's ridiculous case, but I won't fault the jury that delivers a big judgment to an injured former athlete against a school that spent decades pocketing earnings derived from the commercial value of its individual players in addition to the collective product.
