This book traces attempts at college athletics reform from 1855 through the early twenty-first century while analyzing the different roles played by students, faculty, conferences, university presidents, the NCAA, legislatures, and the Supreme Court. _x000B_Pay for Play: A History of Big-Time College Athletic Reform also tackles critically important questions about eligibility, compensation, recruiting, sponsorship, and rules enforcement. Discussing reasons for reform--to combat corruption, to level the playing field, and to make sports more accessible to minorities and women--Ronald A. Smith candidly explains why attempts at change have often failed.Sport and society.College sportsUnited StatesHistoryCollege sportsMoral and ethical aspectsUnited StatesHistoryCollege sportsLaw and legislationUnited StatesHistoryCollege sportsHistory.College sportsMoral and ethical aspectsHistory.College sportsLaw and legislationHistory.796.04/30973Smith Ronald A(Ronald Austin),1936-1845896MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910956781503321Pay for play4472160UNINA
