Bing Kudos to Bryant Gumbel and HBO's Inside Sports reporting on NCAA worker abuse. College athletes are being physically and mentally abused three times the norm by NCAA. The Tepper's Report statistically showed the alarming pattern documented.
College coaches are under so much pressure to win, and go over the line in their threats to athletes. Many know they have a family to support. When an athlete doesn't produce, he or she is faced with a loss of scholarship.
The "the elephant in the room" for NCAA is the worker abuse is just swept under the carpet by the NCAA Governing Body and the member institutions.
Society should see this level of abuse is treated and given the same scrutiny domestic violence is receiving.
Let's not stop worker abuse not only at the college level. Being an high school basketball referee, I heard coaches mentally abuse kids dropping too many f-bombs to keep up. "Coach, you can't talk to my kid that way".
