Unions
Are you for Unions or against them in college athletics? I am for them because players from private schools don't get compensated if they get hurt and can't play again.

RE: Unions
TOTALLY against.

Student-athletes are not "employees". The NLRB (as usual with the present admin) got it absolutely wrong.

Union representation to me is no different from agent representation, and as such any college athlete joining a union is IMO ineligible to compete under NCAA rules.

What if a high school player is hurt and can't play again? His lucrative pro career is gone. Better unionize them too. Then on to junior high.

Unions will kill amateur athletics at all levels.

RE: Unions
I also think that fans should unionize against the big wigs. They should just go to small school college football games and not go to the big name schools.
