Here's the most unlikely NCAA defender, EVER ...
says he's actually on the NCAA's side when it comes to the controversial Calif. bill that would help athletes get paid ... telling"When you're in college," Bosworth says,"you're going to college to get an education."
Of course, the Boz is the LAST guy we expected to have this take ... remember, at Oklahoma, he famously blasted the NCAA by wearing a"National Communists Against Athletes" shirt at the 1987 Orange Bowl. But, when we got the ex-LB out at Reagan Airport over the weekend ... he told us he's now on the org's side in its fight against a bill that would force it to stop punishing athletes who get paid.
"You got some guys on the team that have star status, and other guys on the team that are going to feel shafted," the Boz says."I don't think it's a good idea to put levels like that on the team." Instead, Bosworth's solution to the whole problem is simple -- just give athletes in both women's and men's sports the same stipend ... and let that be all the pay they need.Seems like both Brian and NCAA are fighting a losing battle ...
