The NCAA: A History of Corruption

The NCAA has a long history of corruption and greed. For decades, the organization has exploited college athletes, paying them a pittance while making billions of dollars off their labor. The NCAA has also been accused of antitrust violations, racial discrimination, and sexual assault.

In recent years, the NCAA has come under increasing fire from athletes, coaches, and administrators. In 2019, a group of athletes filed an antitrust lawsuit against the NCAA, alleging that the organization's rules and regulations violate federal law. The lawsuit is still pending, but it has already had a significant impact on the NCAA. The organization has been forced to make some changes, such as allowing athletes to receive compensation from third parties.

The NCAA is also facing pressure from coaches and administrators. In 2020, a group of coaches formed the Coaches Coalition, which is dedicated to reforming the NCAA. The Coaches Coalition has been critical of the NCAA's rules and regulations, and it has called for the organization to make changes. The Coaches Coalition is gaining momentum, and it is likely to play a major role in the future of the NCAA.
