Direct challenge to NCAA. College sports are going to dramatically change.
Elite high school athletes ‘deserve’ more than just pay: Overtime co-founder on amateur basketball
Overtime Elite plans to offer elite high school athletes, as young as 16-years-old, a minimum $100,000 annual salary, along with shares in the company, and the freedom to monetize their fame. Weiner said the company hired roughly 20 staff to help with basketball development, and teachers to keep athletes on track with their education and mental health. Overtime also plans to provide health and disability insurance.
