I agree with him in so far as basketball and football athletes on the highest levels of D-I are far from being actual amateurs. If the NCAA could force every D-I athlete to come clean tomorrow about any rules of amateurism broken, the number of scholarships taken away would be dizzying. Probably into the thousands.

But after that much, Nader is on crack.
