NCAA proposes changes allowing athletes to get paid

The NCAA has proposed sweeping changes to college sports that would allow athletes to collect a paycheck for their work. Under the proposal, big-budgeted schools would be able to pay athletes at least $30,000 per year through a trust fund, complying with Title IX gender equity rules. Additionally, schools could offer unlimited educational support and enter into name, image, and likeness deals with their athletes. This proposal could be the biggest change in college athletics and aims to address the ongoing debate on whether college athletes should be paid for their contributions.
