Are College Sports About To Change In Ways We Don't Understand?

[ChicosBailBonds]

You guys haven't even touched this on a university level.  We used players images to promote buying season tickets, put on billboards, mailers, etc.  You never mention them by name, but it's out there....or was back in the day.  Things like Cyganiak Planning trading cards, should those be done away with?  How about schedule magnets with a player's image?  What about pocket schedules?

Someone can argue these are something to profit from because they led to someone going to the game.  Tough to prove compensation on this, but my point is schools use these tactics all the time. How about a school website....should no players be allowed to be featured any longer?

But this could also be expanded to non-athlete students.  Your example of the school website, tons of students on there.  Promotional flyers and pamphlets sent to prospective students, lots of students on there.  Commercials run during MU basketball games on TV....   Where would the line be drawn?

As mentioned in another thread Buzz has training videos.  Does he use Marquette players in those videos? Is this an issue as far as payment to the players who participate.
