”Jim Harbaugh opened his Monday news conference with a nearly 6-minute statement advocating for revenue sharing with student-athletes.
This isn't the first time the Michigan coach has shared the thought that student-athletes should also benefit from new television deals, but it was his most direct. He told reporters that it's time for a change and that the athletes themselves should benefit from the billions of dollars generated by the sport.
"We all should be about diversity, equity and inclusion. I'm calling for a system that is fair, equitable and benefits all involved," Harbaugh said. "Don't exclude the student-athletes from the profits. My opinion, you can't say you're about diversity, equity and inclusion, if you aren't willing to include the student-athletes in revenue sharing."
Harbaugh said he has brought up the idea of revenue sharing in 2020 and again in 2022 at Big Ten media days, and said he wants to be a voice for the student-athletes in speaking up about what he believes is a big change necessary for the NCAA to move forward and continue to evolve.
"We have to try to make it work, we have to try to make it better and right now," Harbaugh said. "The current status quo is unacceptable and won't survive. In my opinion, we capitalize on the talent, we should pay the talent for their contributions to the bottom line."”

1. He forgot belonging.
2. How much would they pay “student”-athletes out of these billions of dollars of revenue? Would all players get the same amount or could some make more than others?
3. This is a recruiting ploy by hairball.
