Ep 1236 - How College Athletics Got Here
Saturday, 14 June, 2025
On this episode of CrimsonCast, we take a look at the financial and organizational elements that have led to the current situation in college athletics. Huge increases in revenue, the creation of new television networks, and a lack of willingness to include athletes in the business structure have combined with predictable court rulings that leave the current system in a precarious position. We aren't sure where it's going yet, but this podcast gives you some sense of where it's been and how it evolved over time.(NOTE: The audio version of this podcast on Apple has the intro music, while the video version on YouTube and Spotify does not due to some techincal issues. Apologies and we'll do better next time!)
