NCAA investigating Cam Newton for taking cash
Just hit ESPN. I guess that's one way that Bama can beat Auburn this year.

The NCAA can't stand somebody else making a buck. Sure, it's OK if they offer a usless degree to students who, in most cases, can't read by the time they graduate, but make a buck - he11 no!!! The NCAA can KMA, I think the players need to say they don't give a rats a55 about the GD classes, and the coin their providing is a worth a LOT more than the $10K (total) education they're getting in return... The NCAA is run by cowards...

They won't ever stop false starts, either. They should just do away with all rules.

You realize a very very very small percentage of them go pro?

This post is full of fail. Most players can't read? Talk about generalizing the mass based upon a few. $10k in total education? ![]()

If it's true then Auburn will suffer in the long term. The damage to Newton will mostly be through the media like it is now.

I hope he and his family make LOTS of money while he's in college and has a wonderful NFL career after that. Good for him and his family...

They compensate him the way they want to. If he doesn't like it he can go get a job.

Can you imagine giving a kid in the projects $50k to play football BUT requiring him to pay for books, tuition, meals and housing? There's no way that $50k would go for schooling because the pressure from his family and friends to "share" that money would be enormous. I could see D-I schools paying their players $100 per game in addition to their scholarships but there's no way they're going to pay them $4k per game. Furthermore, 99% of these kids play football as a way to pay for education and that should not be changed. |

Hoping this gets out soon for TCU's sake. They deserve it. That program has been fun to watch build. I find it ridiculous how some on here actually think that it is ok for college players to get payed. I mean really? I wish I could get a full scholy and play football.

Run it like what it is: A NFL minor league. Pay them. Let them wear the colors. Give them real compensation. Handing out degrees in Communications doesn't mean shit. |

Paying the players will not stop this behavior. If each kid was to get X-dollars...some will still be looking to get X-dollars plus, and alumni/supporters will be willing to pay. Recruiting is a business, and benefactors want to win.
