Coach K calling to pay college players, keep 1 and done.

http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/26399530/coach-k-ncaa-not-ready-1-done-changeCoach K: NCAA not ready for 1-and-done change Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski is calling on the NCAA to work with the NBA and federal legislators to create a new model for college basketball in the wake of the eventual abolishment of the one-and-done rule.
He seems to be in favor of paying players in the end. I thinks folks like Zion belong in NBA out of high school, and folks like Dexter Lawrence prob. belonged in NFL on day 1. Other kids, like Hunter Renfrow or Gabe Devoe who need time to develop are best for college sports. NBA and NFL both need to end any restrictions on kids going pro and colleges need to return to more student athlete model (if it is possible.) Just because NBA and NFL want cheap D leagues is not the reason for colleges to pay players. And what would Zion be worth to Duke, surely close to 10 million for his 1 year would be fair compensation. Do we want to go there w/ college sports? (Asking for a friends - I will hang up an listen)

My first thought was just that. He is just pushing for more top players who "needs" the Duke brand for 1 year before going pro. Makes it easy for him in his late years. I say let them go straight to the NBA and make coaches work alike.

and be done strictly through the NCAA. Otherwise, big businesses like NewSpring will be popping up on every corner.

the thing that's lost in all this is that the players don't have to play. playing college sports is purely voluntary

if they really and truly felt aggrieved

All it would take is a boycott. They could band together and get it down. But they don't do it. In fact they don't even complain. It's others who do the complaining for them.
The student athletes realize that they have it really good, especially at the big programs. And the ones at smaller programs realize the "pay for play" push has nothing to do with them, they would get shafted under such a set up.

Btw,i've never understood the "hang up and listen" saying. If you hang up, how do you listen? Guess it sounds better than "i'll stay on the line and listen".

It’s from the call in radio shows. The phone caller will listen to the radio host’s response over the radio rather than over the phone.

Everybody is hollering, "Pay'em, Pay'em!!"

I would put a stipulation in place that players get paid after their first full year and one and doners don't get paid at all.

Most people just hang up. That 'listen' part is rare.

No you're wrong. Coach K got Zion bc he told Zion that he needed the Duke Brand. Now, you're saying it is the other way around.
Yeah, I never bought that one either, but apparently Zion did. *cough, cough*

That would kill college basketball for me. It seems like many programs wouldnt be able to afford paying players too. Its not like the players arent already hooked up financially as is. Room, board, utilities, clothes, tuition, tutors, etc etc.

He’s being a cry baby. He knows with the changes the one and dones are gone. Now he and the others that benefited from it will have to recruit guys that are going to stay their three years, want to be there and fit together as a team.
