Do you know how much an education cost these days? Look at the students who are going to school full time while working full time and these athletes are getting that paid for!!!That's fine for someone who is there for the education. I would love a full ride to some university. Most of these guys are there for the football though, so I don't quite agree 100%. The whole issue is certainly is a potential Pandora's Box.
If they're "there for the football", they don't deserve to get paid.
What is it, less then 1% make it to the NFL?
It's not a career path.
if they cant follow the rules, than they should be punished. the rules are in black and white, they're not arbritrary
