College Athletes Should Be Paid
For
College Athletes Are Still Amateurs And Do Not Deserve To Be Paid Unless They Turn Pro.they Do Not Need The Money Either, They Have Enough Money From Their Scholarships To Survive. Of Coarse They May Need To Pick Up A Part-time Job, But I Think They Can Handle It.

 I believe they are being paid, by receiving a college education with perks.

 I would have to agree! They spend all their time getting in weight room, conditioning. It makes it hard on them with education and all. And what if they need to be helping their parents out at home because of money problems and all!

 As awesome as it would be to being a college athlete it would not happen.
1. They would have to raise the admission cost.
2. The athletes already have the free ride threw college which should be good enough.
3. If they want some extra money for say food and such? They could get a part time job on there days off or after practice.

 College athletes shouldn't be paid, even in the form of athletic scholarships.

 I think they are paid in free schooling when most are failures and only pass so they can play the game.

 I disagree. If one team gets paid then it is only fair that all the team should get paid. If this happens than there won't be enough money to support the school thus pay will be discontinued.
