On this week’s episode, the Collective discuss the myth of amateurism and the NCAA, with a deep-dive on an exploitative culture where coaches, administrators and sneaker executives reap seemingly endless dollars in salary at the expense of the uninsured, uncompensated “student athletes” that generate the revenue. But first, Ed leads off with an assessment of the inglorious post-career exploits of Curt Schilling, Zak sets the tone for the main topic with a critical look at the immorality of the McDonald’s All-American Game, and Andrew goes all-in at the thought of a resurgent UConn men’s basketball program.
