Having multiple backs with varying talents keeps defenses off balance, and it provides fresh legs throughout the game. It does water down the numbers for any one back, which could be a drawback for them personally, however.

Gene Baker

Nebraska has too many very good running backs to leave off of the field. RB by committee at the start of the season will help to determine who that main back should be!

Ronald D. Bull

I do not believe there is one back is ready to be all things. But by mid year there may be one.

Justin Miller

Until one of the RB steps up and is a clear favorite I think the best option is to use the talent you have. They can all complement each other.

It'll be interesting to see if they can properly implement it.

It has to fair across the board, from Fordham to Alabama. one monthly stipend for everyone, not just scholarship players. There has to be a limit on how many players all schools should abide by. Determine the national budget and every school must contribute.

Jacob Moseman

Compensation has always been tied to market value. These athletes are worth far more than they're being compensated, and that's been the case for over a century. Hence, they've been ripped off. I support salary, salary cap, and education on how to invest it in 401k style accounts.

Much more controllable, and much more equitable.

Everyone who already commented believes in the same thing I do.

Chuck Siegel

Compensation changes the entire dynamic of college athletics, and not in a positive way.

Robert Lloyd

They should be students and NOT professional athletes. If they want to get paid they can go pro. Personally, I believe they should cancel all sports in public schools and colleges though I love our Huskers.

Don Scott

Put myself through school in the 70's. They are getting for exchange of their athletic prowess what I had to work and save for. The two summers after high school I drove alfalfa trucks 12 hours a day 7 days a week. EARN IT!

Scott Ferguson

They already live better than most students. Free room and board, tutors, clothing, and actual education cost.

Dan List

They are compensated with room and board plus an education. The perks they get as athletes now are unbelievable!!!
