How About Duke v North Carolina in an Empty Gymnasium

Former Duke University basketball player and ESPN analyst Jay Bilas discusses the most recent college basketball scandal, including whether hall of famer and Louisville coach Rick Pitino should lose his job. Bilas talks about how college sports has mushroomed into a multibillion-dollar industry that doesn't allow its players to share in the revenue that they help to generate. He also touches on how the universities and sneaker companies created a system whereby players are paid under the table, and suggests a course of action for the student-athletes.  

Bilas, who is also an attorney, joined ESPN in 1995 and is one of the best-known analysts in the game. A four-year starter at Duke under Mike Krzyzewski from 1982-86, Bilas helped the Blue Devils to the 1986 title game. While at Duke, Bilas was only of only two student athletes appointed to the NCAA's long-range planning committee, serving from 1984-86. Since 1992, he has been an attorney with Moore & Van Allen, where he specializes in commercial litigation.
