LSU made millions of Simmons and the fact that he can't benefit outside of a small scholarship is idiotic. Ben Simmons made LSU millions of dollars and they gave him a $30k scholarship and room & board. In the NFL the players receive about 45% of the total revenue in salary. At Mizzou, the school spends about 11% on scholarships. That's about $20 million less than the AD staff and coaches make. The NCAA is an amazing money making organization for everyone but the kids.
