NCAA is considering college FB athletes to be payed $2000 per year in addition to their athletic scholarship.

Wouldn't this be a pay decrease for most tSEC athletes.

I honestly see this as a band-aid on a gun shot wound. What the hell is 2k gonna do for any college student?

That doesn't even come up to $40.00 a week...

I think its fucking stupid.


Cut practice time. Cut game film study time.

Football in College is not a job, period!
Stop making it a job for these kids.
Allow football players to get a job if they need extra money to "live" on.

Will college football get shittier because of this? Yes, it will...and?

Football in College is not a job. If they want it to be a job then fuck it, college football teams should drop the charade of them being about the student. Instead of taking math, let that dumb sob that is fast as hell take a substitute math class that gives him credit like 40 yard dash times. There ya go.

I agree they work their asses off and want some compensation. Well guess what, your in college and sports is voluntary. Time for the schools to reign in the athletic departments. They care about education or making money?

People need to speak out against this $ handout because thats what it is. Here take this and stfu. Control.

54 topics on the front page.

With the low amount of traffic it should be fewer. Most people will not scroll down past top 20.

I"m not sold you can write it off as a handout. These kids are bringing in BILLIONS to universities......the NCAA, and bowls are getting PAID off the backs of what amounts to free labor.

A scholarship in NO WAY is equivalent to what these athletes provide to a university.

Let's cut to the chase here......because we all know schools do not care about the academic side of this. This is PURELY a money grab. And the ones earning the money want a cut.

I see nothing wrong with this. Collegiate sports have not been "amateur" sports in decades.
