[QUOTE="Sanford, post: 2465739, member: 27733"] So ... a scholarship makes a person an employee. In general, doesn't playing for pay change a person's status to "professional" rather than "amateur"? Also, will the university be on the line for ObamaCare for all their scholarship students? I mean, if it's fair for the sportos it's fair for everyone, right? Then, once they're unionized, could they all strike - say for a lower GPA requirement to keep their scholarship? This thing has hair all over it. [/QUOTE]
