Using paid prostitution to recruit teenagers into unpaid labor that makes the institution money and leads to permanent brain damage in the teenagers is a non-issue?

Not going to comment on the prostitution bit because I highly highly doubt that happens at anywhere near the frequency as is being alleged by others in this thread, but at a top football school like Georgia, a lot of the players can make really good money these days through NIL deals. There has been talk that top 5 star players can make hundreds of thousands a year.

See how you can exploit someone and justify it like you just did?

My brother was a college level athlete but never went pro. These kids are all taking an extra major at college. This major (their sport) has almost no transferable skills outside of people liking you.
