Former college athlete sues NCAA over licensing

I have to say, I agree with this suit.
In a federal lawsuit filed Tuesday, Ed O'Bannon says the NCAA illegally has athletes sign away their rights to the commercial use of their images and does not share any of the proceeds from their use with former athletes.
It's always a bone of contention with NCAA athletes and the NCAA about how the NCAA makes hundreds of millions (or is it billions?) of dollars from their work.

But the athletes themselves? No money at all.

Odd.
