Zion improper benefits allegations are back from the dead, again

[flyingdutchdevil]

I can't read "the doubt in your mind," but I disagree. Zion's family could easily borrow money until his professional earnings began. Duke gives families a lot of advice on such matters. And BTW doesn't North Carolina law make these criminal matters?

And we can disagree.

Loans do make sense, but I assume banks slap a very, very unhealthy interest rate. And those loans are probably challenging to get. Why get a loan when you can just get a payment that is very difficult to trace (and I'm assuming it's difficult or else we'd see a lot more players/coaches get implicated).

This is a sport funded with billions where everyone gets a slice except for players. And because of these pressures, the top players do get compensated (and no, I do not think 1 year of college is payment enough).
