There are people that argue that college athletes are paid enough by the scholarships that they acquire to the big Universities. They are worth according to Jeffery Dorfman author of “Pay College Athletes? They’re Already Paid Up To $125,000 Per Year” he argues that “a student athlete at a major conference school on full scholarship is likely receiving a package of education, room, board, and coaching/training worth between $50,000 and $125,000 per year depending on their sport and whether they attend a public or private university” (Dorfman). People don’t believe that there should be money going into these athletes pockets because they are on scholarships and that should be enough.…
Ameatur athletics at the college level of sports is a huge business. The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) generates millions of revenue every year and colleges and their programs get paid. Yet, the players that are on the court or field bringing in the millions of revenue get no reward no money their way. Ameatur athletes barely can afford meals, clothing, and other possessions while professional athletes get everything and more for doing the same job. Goldman responded to this with, “ Almost fifty-eight percent say money they have is inadequate.”…

Should college athletes be paid for playing? No, they should not because they are already getting scholarships, the colleges might not be able to afford to pay them, and because playing the sport is not a job. Athletes are already getting scholarships, do they really need or deserve to get paid as well? They only play for one season a year, but the scholarships help them all year round, so why do they deserve even more money during the season. Besides, they are not only getting to play a sport they probably really enjoy, but they also get to travel free around the country, be on TV regularly, and maybe even get looked at by professional sports teams.…

What am I going to eat tonight? How am I going to help my family out? Questions like these often creep into our minds as well. I’m fortunate enough not to have these problems first hand but some of my teammates struggle in eating every night because they just don’t have money to always buy food. Not everyone on the football team is on scholarship, we have a good amount of walk-ons on our team and after practice we eat dinner, but just the guys on scholarship.…
