Hypocrisy and the NCAA

Interesting story on the NCAA and even Coach Gailey is quoted:

"(The NCAA) rents out college athletes every year. While I was in college, the NCAA rented me out to many different corporations and allowed me to play in endorsement-filled stadiums every week," Bloom wrote last week in The Sporting News.

As long as the money is lining the pockets of the NCAA and its member institutions and not the student-athletes, then it's fine.

"It's a great money-making scheme," Georgia Tech head coach Chan Gailey said.
