amateur. It's their choice.
The non-profit universities that compete in college sports have a 100+ year tradition of amateur athletics. It's what the universities and fans want. If an athlete doesn't like that, they should go pro (while attending college if they so choose).
Again, an athlete is allowed to attend any university and play *pro* sports and make money off their name, image, and likeness while doing it. They just won't be eligible to play for the non-profit university's amateur NCAA teams.
