I’d like to explain the circumstances we would experience if we pay college athletes and let you all know that it’s best to not pay them, but to offer more for scholarships and incentives. 

I know some of you may think this is unfair therefore I will explain my reasoning as to why the money should go towards universities not that athletes themselves my first point I’d like to talk about regarding paying college athletes is a some athletes are already offered full ride scholarships fluoride is essentially when your room tuition board and dining expenses are covered according to information taken by a survey from scholarships dot-com Division one schools that participate in football can give out up to 85 scholarships to their players with the average amount of money awarded to thirty six thousand and seventy dollars. Essentially they have around 100 120 players and eighty-five of them can accept this scholarship which is considered a full ride and $36,000 is set towards school and also for them to have just in case. 

Whether it’s getting extra books or getting a tutor if that costs money then they would use that money towards that but it’s already more than enough left over for certain schools tuition as I mentioned earlier how aha Ohio State has ten thousand dollars in state tuition let’s say you’re a player that comes from Ohio you get a full ride scholarship you pay the $10,000 you still have twenty six thousand dollars left over spent. What exactly are you going to spend it on also my next point would be that certain players have already been penalized for receiving funds or doing stuff to inherit funds from other people for example the UNC target or University of North Carolina Tar Heel football program they had five players that were kicked off the team due to the fact that they were saving money there was also one case where a man named Terry Watson gave $2,000 to one student named Marvin Austin who was also on the team and he was eventually dismissed from the team. 

My question is how would you give back or if you should give back to those players that have already been affected and how it’d be a fan of their players who have lost accolades such as records, stats trophies rings they lost those because of the fact that they either received money or gave money. Do they get their money back or do they get their accolades back or they just left in the dust even though the rule wasn’t implemented back then um yes players need to maybe coming to schools for sports but one thing that, I would like to focus on is the fact that you come to school for an education first and that’s like the bottom line like for example my coach tells me focus on school go to class get your work done and then focus on practice after. I feel that whatever you’re an athlete, whenever you’re going to school somewhere big, yes you may have that exposure and yes you may be traveling.
