It is a talent vs admin labor dispute.

Does having to fund non-revenue sports change the equation yes, but this has become a new issue since the tv revenue went up.

And to call them volunteers is laughable. Do you realize the commitment these players have to put into their sports?

And the popularity of college sports is a combination of both fan bases as well as the talent. The girls bball got the increase in popularity due to talent this year (plus some rivalry bit added in).
