If you don't like that, don't take an athletic scholarship.

The solution is to end the NCAA regulations in this area so that athletes can capitalize on their likenesses above the board. Then you won't have shady under the table deals and the like.

Bad rules leads to corrupt practices. And the history of the NCAA with regards to hoops and football is exhibit A. In this case, the NCAA rules against being able to exploit your likeness hews against mighty natural market forces that push in the other direction.

There is every good reason for California's law, there are no good reasons for the NCAA regulations.
