The pay can only come through sales of the merchandise from retailers. If a booster wants to by $200,000.00 worth jerseys, how is that any different that donating to the university. It's just that NOW, the player gets a cut. And IT IS WORTH IT, RIGHT?
I guess the bottom line is that if you believe that college players should go to the highest bidders / deepest pockets a la the NFL, then sure go for letting players profit off sale of merchandise.

Yes, and that's only a PROMISE to buy their jerseys. The kid actually has to be on the team to get the money from the sales and that type of agreement is pretty much unenforceable in every court in the land.
