The coaches make millions of dollars off of the athletes' labor, the schools make millions of dollars off of the athletes' labor, and the NCAA makes millions of dollars off of the athletes' labor. It's only right for the athletes to be able to make money off of their own labor.

So let that be a lesson, don't get drunk at the dinner or before you know it the pilots won't be invited and it will simply become a dinner for the spouses to discuss our life insurance policy

Actually, the next class starts on Tues the 5th. We did this because we bring everyone in the night before class starts - which is Super Bowl Sunday in this case - so we delayed a day for hotel reasons.
