I'm not sure I follow. Who's the few and who's the many?

Athletes should not get paid to play sports until after education. This could be a huge precedent setting case.

How about this - if these schools are really making so much money, forget about paying the players. Relieve the tax payer for supporting these institutions through public money.

Yeah the star RB for OU can get injured and they'll have a replacement who's just as good lined up the next snap. There is no shortage of athletes and besides that OU is going to sell out their games no matter who they trot out there. The brand is that strong. Player X doesn't mean squat.

Player X can mean a lot. That's partly why Texas A&Ms revenues went up $37 million when Manziel became a star. http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sport...0,5117146.post You think that's easily replaceable?

How will this negatively affect the players if it goes through?

If the plan I'm suggesting about paying the players a salary and doing away with scholarships goes through, it would definitely have a negative effect on the players. They would truly become employees and could be "fired" at any moment for any reason. The players that aren't "irreplaceable" as you call them (which is a ****ing joke by the way) would really be ****ed because their worth wouldn't demand a big enough salary to cover their expenses.
These athletes are well taken care of and get exactly what they've earned. They get a chance at a free education and an avenue to showcase their talent with a chance to turn that into a future career. Last edited by LoneWolf; 03-18-2014 at 02:08 PM.. |
