Universities have been getting a cut since the beginning of the NCAA -- revenue sharing. Athletes have been denied fair compensation through a regulatory monopoly that is in part subsidized by taxpayers.

I'm hoping that the new rules cause this entire bread and circus charade to bankrupt itself.
It's terrible writing, used to obfuscate the fact that the authors actually have nothing to say.

When did colleges start playing football and when did the first caterwauling about how such-and-such ruins the game occurred? The gap couldn't have been more than a few years.

U.S. Football: First noted game, 1892; first college game, 1896:

I'm presuming you don't mean U.K. Football (Rugby).

I don't know of a caterwauling index, but maybe 2 minutes after the 1st game started?

Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.

Reprove not a scorner, lest they hate thee: rebuke the wise, and they will love thee.

Give instruction to the wise, and they will be yet wiser: teach the just, and they will increase in learning.
