Dodd: "Amateurism isn't going to collapse"

The NCAA has put together a committee to study what rights student athletes have when it comes to their image and likeness. 

There have been discussion for year's on whether college athletes should be paid. Currently, players can't use their accomplishments to make money because they don't own the rights.

But by forming this committee, is the NCAA just stalling the progress to pay players?

Forget the motivation for a second, @NCAA took a huge step in forming a name, image likeness working group. https://t.co/WuMzmie66o

CBSSports.com's national college football writer Dennis Dodd joined Andy Bunker and Randy McMichael to break down exactly what the NCAA is trying to do.

"I thought that was a big move this week. I think it was Tuesday when the NCAA established that working group to establish name, image and likeness," Dodd said. "If people aren't familiar with that, it's your born, God given right to capitalize on your accomplishments when you come out of the womb. The NCAA doesn't allow that, or didn't allow that."

"The foundation of amateurism isn't going to collapse say if these players get into a licensing agreement with an individual or even the NCAA where they share proceeds from jersey sales."

Why is the NCAA all of the sudden making players' likeness a point of emphasis?

"It's a very litigant society. The NCAA is fending off--I think there's 200 lawsuits just to do with head trauma alone. And the less liability they can occur, the better for them."
