LSU recently rewarded its football team with a new and improved locker room — and we’re not just talking about an ordinary locker room. The facility features lounging chairs that were designed to be equivalent to first class seats on an airplane, and some may argue that it’s more of a bedroom than a locker room. The lounge pod includes an iPad mount, power outlets, ventilated storage boards and more.
Bilas went to Twitter saying, “If only there was enough money…” which is something the former Duke basketball player frequently does.
Over the years, Bilas has been very outspoken in regard to the NCAA’s amateurism policy, which prevents student-athletes from profiting off their own likenesses.
In 2017, Bilas told Business Insider, “there’s no argument that this is a multibillion-dollar business that is professional in every way except how the athletes are treated. The only student in college that is subject to a wage restriction is an athlete.”
As the argument about fair compensation for student-athletes continues, Bilas won’t turn off his Twitter fingers.
