[uh-oh]

i believe they should, the tricky part is who all should be paid and how much. im not sure how it works exactly now. i think its just like your schooling is free if you have a scholarship. but you still need money tho, to eat, to live in general, get around etc.

but should a female volleyball player be paid? should i dunno some rugby player if they even have that in college be paid?

it should obviously be whatever sports are generating money, namely football and basketball. but there is always baseball too, but does that generate money?

and think about a college roster. its like 100 people. pay them all minimum wage, whats that like 15k or something, thats 1,500,000 right there. i dunno what a basketball roster and other shit is.

and if a big school like ohio state does it, smaller schools should have to do it too, like akron for example.

its just hard to see it happening, for big schools it seems obvious, but at little schools you could be crippling that college trying to pay athletes

im for them getting paid tho, espescially since the vast majority of them dont see the pros, and with something like football you have to give that the majority of your time and thoughts and energy, and you are putting your health at risk and probably taking years off your life, all under the flag of your school

a scholarship is great, but what about the kids who didnt get a scholarship but make the team? and if you pay them, and not the kids on scholarship, thats like punishing someone for being good lol

its too tricky yo

i don't see them getting paid anytime soon
