A balanced look at what has been an ongoing debate in the world of college athletics for quite some time. Excellent expository and relevant quotes from individuals who have been involved in bringing the issue to the fore. Contextually relevant, particularly with regard to other discussions taking place centered around the health and financial matters facing athletes at every competitive level. A decidedly worthwhile read.
