There is still a conversation to be had about young kids getting large


sums of money, though. Even if just something like $50,000, It could lead to bad outcomes. Even when people say the bluebloods have always been handing out that money, the fact that is will be out in the open will be interesting. Social media and all will fan it.

For the record, I have always been a fan of paying the athletes what they are due since sports have become such a big business for schools. I just wanted to see that money put in some kind of trust such that the athletes attain it after their departure from the school/team. Then, it's not directly effecting them while a student-athlete.
