They are there because they are elite at what they do. Just

as the kid who earns a full ride based upon their academics is elite at what he or she does while my kid and many others are paying tuition.

The fact that tution is "market value" reflects not the true market value of the players but the value that was established by a monoploy that told them that was all they could receive and enforced a whole lot more rules upon them. Look at what the OSU AD said about NIL - it was taking money away from his department. That shows you there are revenues that were previously going to the school for them to use as they wanted and they were not paying the talent.

Do you think the fans value the players or the random person in the AD's office?

I also am not saying the schools should pay them millions but there should be enough money to pay them something reaosnable and then let them get their NIL money whereever they can get it.
