Any teams that were paid…

Argumentative Research Paper Outline College athletes should not complain about not getting paid, they should be offered the option of a tuition or a salary. Not Both. People think that they should get paid because they are in college sports now. (Jones) Some say that they should because they could help with family situations. (Lemmons) Also because they should be giving them what they deserve. (Lemmons) Should College Athletes really get paid? They should not because they do not know how…

Imagine you’re a college athlete that puts your body on the line and has had surgeries and medical bills are piling up, what do you do/ you’ve gotten a scholarship, but your scholarship money is very scarce and your parents have trouble paying your tuition, what do you do. College athletes are seen as athletes that are not always recognized for making their school’s sports program flow, not only are they going unrecognized they are doing it for free.

And kids who crush it in college end up inventing apps that they later sell for billions of dollars. The Adicts Sure your parents probably made you go to church or temple or wherever when you grew up. Some kids end up embracing Sunday school and make young life, church lock-ins…

not to pay? College athletics brings in a lot of money for colleges, but the topic of whether college athletes should be paid or not is quite controversial. There are many reasons that people are against college athletes being paid. College athletes should not be paid because they get compensation for their time, the money to pay them is not there, and college athletes are amateurs, not professionals.

Why College Athletes Shouldn’t be Paid Money is money no matter what form it is in, cash, check, credit, and even scholarships as well. Student-athletes are given more than they actually realize. But yet they are convinced they need more because of the activities they perform on a daily basis. I believe they do not truly understand how how much they are granted over a four year span. Maybe reading over the job description before executing their decision the way they did the would not have to be…

Another con I would mention about being a sport agent is that the high supply of the sport agents. According to the ESPN, there are 714 agents certified by the NFL Players Association and 300 of them, in other words 42 percent has no clients.

In today’s society, colleges are being faced with a controversial topic on whether or not student-athletes should be paid. Student-athletes and some fans are suggesting that student-athlete’s efforts are profiting colleges, and the student-athletes should be compensated for their hard work. The N.C.A.A. restricts colleges from paying athletes beyond attendance costs (Tracy, Marc, and Ben Strauss). Attendance costs includes financial costs that a scholarship does not; such as, transportation to…

tickets, jersey/ fan apparel, or signing lucrative contracts? The NCAA and Universities have been treating college athletes poorly. College athletes are not classified as employees but they do all the work an employe would do. College athletes do not get paid, only receive a scholarship to the university, and they receive all of the stresses and hardly any of the benefits of being a college. Athletes deserve to be paid and no longer deserve the disrespect from the bully that is the NCAA…

like Katy Perry and Adele are making around $135 million dollars a year to stand up on a stage and lip sing for an hour or two and attend Red Carpet events. Why is that? Surgeons save lives every single day, they put in eight or more years just for college; And that's before becoming a resident, and they work on life changing surgeries that can go on for over 18 hours or longer in some cases. To start off, surgeons are making a living by saving other people’s lives. According to Lee, Al,…
