the thinking goes that since ucla and cal athletic depts are in the red. And being supported by the university general fund. That “found revenue” like the 20.5 million a year that ucla gets and can pass on to athletes should be $ not given to athletes but to the state or university as a whole.
if the state owns you it owns your revenue is the thinking.
