There are many theories right now on how to compensate players who play on big revenue generating sports like football and basketball at major universities. I support a model that gives each athlete a little bit of spending money (like $200 a month) with their scholarships. I don't think you will ever be able to pay athletes across all sports, it just won't work.
One plan I have heard was for each athlete to look for sponsorships to help them with the costs outside the classroom. Which got me thinking, which current Michigan football players would be a good fit for a corporate sponsorship:
Potential Corporate Sponsor = Current Michigan Player
Miracle Grow = Devin Gardner
Mio = Drew Dileo
Frito Lay's Funyuns = Devin Funchess
Windex = Brian Cleary
Wrangler Jeans = Jack Wangler
Got Milk? = Jeremy Gallon
Taco Bell = Too easy but Taco Charlton
Rosetta Stone = Fitzgerald Toussaint
Avery Labels = Courtney Avery
Janet Jacksons New CD = Jeremy Jackson
Ross Departments Stores = James Ross II
Star Fleet Trucking = Dennis Norfleet
Bell Labs = Russell Bellomy
Avenger's = Justice Hayes
Pogo Scrabble = Henry Poggi
Gordon's Food Service = Thomas Gordon and Cam Gordon
John Denver's Greatest Hits = Bo Dever
Gantt Charts = Allen Gant
Sesame Street = Blake Countess
Drake Hotels = Drake Johnson
Beach Boys = Jarrod Wilson
Honeywell Thermostats = Delonte Hollowell
You can prevent forest fires = Richard Ash
Indian Jones Movies = Royce Jenkins-Stone
AC/DC Back in Black = Jibrell Black
Bosch Audio = Kyle Bosch
NASDEQ = Brennen Beyer
Boudreaux's Butt Paste = Jake Butt
