Josh Rosen responds to UCLA's $280M Under Armour deal: 'Gotta love non-profits'
UCLA, one of the most decorated programs of all time, reportedly made a bit of history on Tuesday when it reportedly inked a $280 million shoe and apparel deal with Under Armour. The news is according to multiple reports.
BREAKING: Under Armour & UCLA to announce 15 year, $280M apparel deal, the largest ever in college sports history - source (via @JGolden5)

It's the largest deal in NCAA history and will cover 15 years. The school will obviously make a boatload of money from the contract, but its athletes won't get a penny. And UCLA quarterback Josh Rosen is well aware of that.
He took to Instagram to share this since-deleted post:
The caption reads "We're still amateurs though ... Gotta love non-profits #NCAA." Clearly, this is a jab at the NCAA using players' likeness and star power to benefit financially, while athletes aren't being paid. It also comes from a kid who had a hot tub in his dorm last year.
Certainly, his head coach Jim Mora won't be pleased with Rosen's post, who likened him to Johnny Manziel.
