Lunancy Cam $200,000

Once again, you're not making the point you think you are. Not even close.

What was Jimbo's coach at Samford being paid?
How much money was the athletic department receiving?
What were the fans paying to attend games?

So Jimbo was from a time when there was no money and "college athletics was college athletics".
But then he had the chance to get paid and decided he "deserved the world"?
Sounds exactly what players are doing.
Recognizing the money in the sport and requesting accordingly.
Just as Jimbo did.
What is the CEO of apple getting paid? How much are people paying for their products? Hint: apples entry level employees selling their products at stores after paying fixed living expenses like housing, food, healthcare etc are keep less than college athletes were pre-nil with stipends and pelle grants.

Have the apple employees gotten raises as the company earned more money?
Or are they at the same compensation package as 2000?

Did the players get raises as the schools earned more money (most schools wound up losing more money) or were they still at the same compensation package as 2000?

Hints:
Tuition went up 280% since 2000 (far outpaces wage gains at apple)
Cost of training went up
Stipend went up
Cost of food went up
Cost of housing went up

I'm the wrong one to try on this. You're not making the point you believe you are.

So we're discussing level of compensation?

We're making the same point.
You're right, all costs are up.
No reason why direct player compensation shouldn't ALSO be up.

Revenue is also very very much up.

It's called prioritizing expenses.
Stop paying $70k for Uber Eats while claiming can't compensate players.
Cut other expenses then if necessary.
Does HC Schiano need a country club membership on top of his $4m salary?

Sounds like you are the wrong one to try this on - prioritizing expenses and making "tough" decisions.

"Sorry Apple employees. We can't give you any raises. Rents went up and coffee is more expensive. Do you want coffee or a raise?"
 
It was 75 years ago when Jimbo had to pay half his way at Samford.
It was over 100 years ago that The Gipper was paid 200 dollars to play professionally under an assumed name when he was an "amateur student athlete" at Notre Dame. He bet on games, too.
