#LetGurleyPlay

The University of Georgia Athletic Association made $98.9 million in revenues during the 2013 fiscal year, according to this revealing report in the Athens Banner-Herald. The University of Georgia Athletic Association’s main income sources included $21.2 million in direct football revenue, $23.2 million in ticket contributions from football season ticket buyers, and $18.2 million in TV income through the NCAA and SEC. Yet Todd Gurley, their star running back and Heisman-trophy candidate, isn’t allowed to make a few hundred dollars off his own likeness. The monopolistic NCAA and the greedy University of Georgia Athletic Association are pure evil, and Todd Gurley’s teammates should refuse to take the field today against Mizzou in solidarity with their brother. In short, let the man play, or no one plays.

Who will be college football’s Lech Walesa?
