Andrew Cooper, from college star to activist: ‘The NCAA does not exist to protect athletes’Andrew Cooper, from college star to activist: ‘The NCAA does not exist to protect athletes’Andrew Cooper, from college star to activist: ‘The NCAA does not exist to protect athletes’: Andrew Cooper hates the NCAA. Today, he’s an athlete’s rights activist who believes institutions and the NCAA handle mental health and sexual assault situations poorly. NCAA college sports are big business. The NCAA did not sanction the institution for failing to submit sexual assault charges against football players between 2010 and 2015. College athletes feel pressure because they support a multibillion-dollar industry without rights or protections.
