2013 · Film · documentary · 85 min
Directed by Trevor Martin, Jonathan Paley, Ross Finkel
Schooled: The Price of College Sports is a comprehensive look at the business, history and culture of big-time college football and basketball in America. It is an adaptation of “The Cartel” by Pulitzer Prize Winning civil rights scholar Taylor Branch, and his October 2011 article in The Atlantic, “The Shame of College Sports.” Schooled presents a hard-hitting examination of the NCAA’s treatment of its athletes and amateurism in collegiate athletics; weaving interviews, archival and verité footage to tell a story of how college sports became a billion dollar industry built on the backs of athletes who are deprived of numerous rights.

I'd highly recommend the documentary Schooled: The Price of College Sports. It shows many interviews with the students, coaches, and staff involved with this situation. (Also free w/ Amazon Prime.)
