The only tradition that Boise State has ever had is that of their
unbelievably successful football program. And that tradition was manufactured
brilliantly to help the campus expand.

While the Broncos have been (and will continue to be) criticized for their
strength of schedule (or lack thereof), there is no other team in the country
that has consistently beaten higher ranked opponents the way Boise State has. In
the last ten years, the Broncos have lost only nine games.

But while the on-field success is certainly nice for a school’s prestige, it is
only a small component of what Kustra was looking for. According to financial
reports submitted to the US Department of Education, Boise State is one of about
25 schools in the country with an athletic department that doesn’t operate out
of a deficit.

Without even including donations from alumni and contributions from boosters,
Boise State self-reported earning more than $14 million in football related
revenues last season.

A litany of scandals in recent years have made the corruption of
college sports constant front-page news. We profess outrage each time we learn
that yet another student-athlete has been taking money under the table. But the
real scandal is the very structure of college sports, wherein student-athletes
generate billions of dollars for universities and private companies while
earning nothing for themselves. Here, a leading civil-rights historian makes the
case for paying college athletes—and reveals how a spate of lawsuits working
their way through the courts could destroy the NCAA.
