Stories, Myths, and a New Model for College Sports, Part II
Welch Suggs, “Stories, Myths, and a New Model for College Sports, Part II.,” in Athletic Director U. https://athleticdirectoru.com/articles/stories-myths-and-new-model-for-college-sports-part-2/
Abstract: In Part II of a two-part series, University of Georgia Associate Professor Welch Suggs proposes a new model to make college sports transparent, efficient, and run for the benefit of athletes and universities alike. In this follow-up, he makes the case for bifurcating sports into commercial and academic models, with colleges choosing which models to adopt for each of their sports. Doing so would rationalize the operations and goals of the athletic enterprise and enable greater benefits for athletes and colleges alike.
