I likely won't disagree with things they say. I'm just saying they will leave out the part where those student athletes are getting $200K worth of education and a great opportunity to get a degree to better themselves which is worth far more than a 50K salary or something. If people can't realize that the odds of making it as a pro are incredibly small and they need to take the education piece seriously, a little bit of money in their pocket isn't incredibly helpful in the future.
So, I'll watch it and probably agree they aren't getting quite enough. I'll also be pissed that people throw away the things they are getting as if they don't count.
The thing is, and I do agree with you on the education piece, but in basketball specifically most that feel they can make it to the NBA are planning to play basketball after college, whether the pros G-league or over seas. The university is a stepping stone to their career (or internship), in their minds. I have not watched this doc yet, but plan to. I would imagine the issues that are brought up are based around the problems that athletes/coaches/institutions face when dealing with the mid-to-upper level recruits, who usually garner more of the "benefits" or are looking for where they can get them. There are plenty, I would argue a very large percentage, of student athletes that compete in the NCAA and view their scholarship as a free education setting themselves up for a career in the future.
The muddied waters are the top 100 or so recruits. The ones who have been put on a pedestal and moved around the country to play with the best team, against the best competition. Which is why they would focus on that more than the other student athletes who are getting their 200k education and not batting an eye. I'd be surprised if they don't touch on that aspect at all, though.
