I would seriously like to have private conversation with Bilas to see how his brain (doesn't) work on this topic.
OK, so you pay the players. It's open season, the richest programs get the best players. But these guys aren't actually in "school". They're just wearing a jersey, and transfer when they get a better offer. Colleges will be running semi-pro athletic leagues. What has that got to do with college??
It's the same thing as having the Cleveland Cavs pay to have a chemistry department. What does that have to do with the Cavs?!
