They will eventually use their money disparity to their advantage. What's to stop them from taking $10MM/yr off the top of their revenues and paying that to their 500 or so athletes? While the thought has been that a kid would rather transfer down and get playing time vs. sitting on the bench at at big school, if he is being paid $20K/year does that sway his decision? Is that a way for the SEC & B1G to corral the talent for themselves? [/QUOTE]
