While the NCAA remains set on student-athletes maintaining amateur status, the college athletics governing body does allow student-athletes to accept bonuses for winning Olympic medals.<\/p>\n

For American athletes, that means making $25,000 in the case of gold, $15,000 for silver and $10,000 for bronze. That means a handful of NCAA eligible\u00a0swimmers including\u00a0Lilly King, Ryan Murphy, Kathleen Baker, <\/strong>and Simone Manuel\u00a0<\/strong>headed back to school this fall with prizes from the US Olympic Committee in tow.<\/p>\n

For the University of Texas’\u00a0Joseph Schooling\u00a0<\/strong>who won 100 butterfly gold<\/a> for Singapore, and the nation’s first Olympic swimming medal, the check was a much larger sum. Schooling received $750,000 for his performance in Rio.<\/p>\n

In light of this, NCAA President\u00a0Mark Emmert\u00a0<\/strong>explained that some in the NCAA are now questioning the policy.<\/p>\n

Emmert told the Aspen Institute,<\/p>\n

\u201cTo be\u00a0perfectly honest, it\u2019s causing everybody to go, \u2018Oh, well, that\u2019s not really what we were thinking about,’\u201d Emmert said. \u201cSo, I don\u2019t know where the members will go on that. I mean, that\u2019s a little different than 15 grand for the silver medal for swimming for the U.S. of A. So, I think that\u2019s going to stimulate a very interesting conversation.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The original intent of the rule had been to reward “an extraordinary thing” with what was not expected to be an extraordinary sum. Large prizes raise more questions about amateur status. There were not yet any formally announced plans to discuss the issue.<\/p>\n
