Charles Barkley<\/a> made clear Sunday that he\u2019s no fan of the current name, image and likeness (NIL) system that sees collectives essentially paying players to join their school\u2019s programs.<\/p>\n

Barkley, a current NBA analyst on Turner networks and college basketball analyst during the NCAA Men\u2019s Basketball Tournament, appeared on “60 Minutes” and didn\u2019t mince words when talking about the current state of college sports.<\/a><\/p>\n

“It’s a travesty and a disgrace. I’m so mad now how we can mess up something that’s so beautiful,” Barkley said of today\u2019s college basketball.<\/p>\n

“In the next three to five years, we’re going to have 25 schools that’s going to dominate the sports because they can afford players, and these schools who can’t afford or won’t pay players are going to be irrelevant.”<\/p>\n

The Basketball Hall of Famer had similar criticism last week after CBS\u2019 Greg Gumbel and Clark Kellogg interviewed the new NCAA president<\/a>, Charlie Baker, about his plans for NIL and college athletics.<\/p>\n

Baker said he planned on talking to lawmakers in Washington about NIL and allowing politicians to potentially get involved. Working with politicians was what Barkley specifically took issue with.<\/p>\n

“Did he say we\u2019re going to ask the politicians to help us? See, that p—es me off already. Our politicians are awful people. As I talked to Clark earlier because I asked him about your conversation, I would actually [like to get] people who actually care about basketball.”<\/p>\n

“I would put a committee together. I would love for Clark to be on the committee. Get some coaches, get some players and let\u2019s try to work this thing out. We can\u2019t ask these politicians nothing. Those people are awful people. Democrats and Republicans \u2013 they\u2019re all crooks.”<\/p>\n

Baker was named NCAA president in December.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
