What: The need usually starts to differ from mine either on how exactly the players should be paid and by who, and the opportunity in how things should be played out to remedy the situation.
Why: I feel like the cause of the need is unanimous both inside and outside the boundary. The ideas on how to accommodate that need, and who should accommodate it, is where the line is drawn.
Interviewer 1: This person loves collegiate sports and also seemed to love my opportunities. They agreed with my views on the subject and my method on how to get involved and help out with my services, especially the agency service.
Interviewer 2: This person also loves college sports but feels like the NCAA giving student-athletes more than their athletic scholarships is not okay. They believe that it would be more beneficial for the NCAA institutions to be required to spend that money earned on better facilities throughout their entire campus instead of on only the athletic department. They feel like instead of players trying to get compensated nowadays, it should go back to how there was a sense of pride and honor in representing your institution as a student in a recreational sport. Even with a presumed talent level that will be much lower, this person feels like that is the kind of student-athletes that will make college football even more entertaining than the players trying to cash in now, especially considering most of them don't have that much talent to get paid anyway. Those with the talent can find other avenues to get paid for their services if they're not as passionate to simply represent their educational institution in a fun and amateur atmosphere.
Interview 3: This person is quite fond of college sports and also agreed with all of my views and even methods for how to deal with it. However, they feel like the NCAA will provide all of said services, so it would not be beneficial to try to compete with them on this opportunity.
Interview 4: This person loves sports in general and agreed with my methods as possible ways to solve the problem. However, they feel like the decimation of the NCAA has been a long time coming and propose an opportunity of their own, which is actually quite interesting. They feel like the NCAA should cut their losses with prospects of that talent level who have no desire to get an education as well as play sports and just focus on those who are passionate in representing their respective institutions as students first, then athletes, under the athletic scholarships that are provided to them. Conversely, those who do strive to get compensated for their athletic abilities and high talent level, and who doesn't prioritize their education nearly as much, can play in semi-professional leagues instead. This opportunity can also benefit the NCAA as the semi-pro leagues will look to partner with them and use their facilities, broadcasting deals, and/or even their logo on their merchandise to increase the viewership and reputation of the league.
Interview 5: This person apparently watches collegiate sports often, though didn't know much about this issue that has been at the main reason of backlash towards the NCAA for quite some time now. They agreed with my views and was specifically interested in the app opportunity.
