Abstract
California recently passed the Fair Pay to Play Act, allowing college athletes to be paid for endorsements, making income off of their likeness. While many people, including LeBron James, are heralding this bill as a “game changer,” we argue that the complexity of legal ramifications is being overlooked. Instead, we propose that sports revenue be used to decrease the racial education gap in the local communities that are often preyed upon by elite sports programs.
