I keep hoping that they'll get to the final four and the players will walk out and leave the networks hanging.

Sandy,

That should happen in College Football.  March is magical.  If only football would learn.  Think they should pay stipends to the players though.

Is there a difference between football and basketball?

As near as I can tell, both the networks and the schools make huge profits from these games. Regardless of the sport, the players get nothing.

No real difference as far as they treat the players.

99% will never play professionally

The rest get a free college education for the ability to play a game at a level rest of us could only dream of.

They get treated like rock stars in an environment with abundent members of the opposite sex.

Wish I had that opportunity.

I was more the lounge singer with fewer groupies.

Had the aspirations but not the talent.

Who is using whom?

Personnally i hope Duke beats UNC in st louis.  Gonna be moving to religh at end of april so will get to live the rivalry more closely.  Up here in NH you mention Duke-UNC and they look at you with a dumb look on their face.  
as for paying the players, i think it would be a bad idea.  If the colleges had to give up some of there income from the games they would just get it from somewhere else, namely higher tuition for all the non-athletes.  If a free top notch education isn't appreciated by the player then thats there tough luck.  However, i don't see why its such a big deal if they recieve money in form of corporate sponsorships.

Seems like higher tuition is on the bill regardless of who is taking the money.
