Unlike Jen Cohen, Smith is able to say how much money athletes are getting. My guess is that Cohen won’t say it because the amount of money UW athletes are getting is pretty small.

Anyone with a legal background could have easily understood this with great clarity at the jump off point ~ but the reality is the entire sport now knows that after being in operation for a couple of recruiting periods, what started off sounding to the neophyte observer as something to be described as the chaotic Wild West can now be more accurately described as the vastness of outer space with no actual legally or morally defendable boundaries at all. Unlike pro sports, the only limitation that exists is how much money the sponsors want to spend to pay the players.
Thinking along the same lines, Oddly enough this aspect may ripple back to the pro sports environment in a huge way because from a developing legal precedent standpoint, technically, the Salary Cap that exists in the Pro game is now not legally defensible either.
