      VICE Versa: College $ports, Inc.

      2021 1h 30m Documentary List
      Reviews American college athletics is a $14 billion dollar annual business, but NCAA athletes do not receive a salary or benefits, are not cut into the profit system, and are precluded from entering the free market or signing any endorsement deals. Now, host Jeremy Bloom is on a deeply personal mission to expose the system that wronged him and seek justice for his peers. One of countless casualties of the ferocious bite of the NCAA, Jeremy Bloom swiftly ended his collegiate football career in the early 2000s over an endorsement discord. He went on to be drafted to the NFL by the Philadelphia Eagles, and later a two-time Olympian for skiing. In this definitive documentary, Bloom investigates how the NCAA got to where it is, the people it has affected, how it continues to oppress its athletes under the false narrative of the "amateurism" of college sports, and what the future may hold.
