Default yes pay them

I believe they sould get paid. These colleges are not non-profit organizations they are able to market using the players names and images and if you go to a game they have a real feel of a professional franchise. Also. when you go to a game look around and see how many people are making money off that game or sport and ralize just about the only ones not getting paid are the players. For as bad as the fight for players would be if yo would pay them, I think it is already pretty fierce. I always feel for the players when they are being interviewed by reporters who are all geting paid pretty well and if they refused they would probably get suspended. The problem with paying them is that not all schools make money on these sports and the lower profile sports lose money and thanks to Title 9 you would have to pay women athletes
