In this college football video, Will College Athletes Soon Be University Employees, I will be joined by Travis Knobbe with Last Word on Sports to discuss the future of college athletics and how college players are wanting to become paid employees of the universities they represent. We will discuss the ramifications of that, and how it may actually have a negative impact on the players.
Travis Knobbe is not only a WVU football beat writer for Last Word on Sports, he is also an attorney. Travis lends his expertise to this conversation. We touch on the tax ramifications of college athletes getting paid, the contractual issues, the potential death of olympic sports, and the possible unionization of college athletes.
