If the university can make money off their stardom, why shouldn't they be entitled to money made by their name/talent/actions/fame?

Sure as long as they are required to keep there grades to at least a B average and pay there tuition.

Tracy J England

Universities and Athletic Departments make millions on the backs of athletes. Those same athletes are not allowed to have a job while participating in college athletics (at least at the NCAA level).

Larry Ewart

I do think that with the amount of money be made by colleges, coaches ,etc that the athletes should have additional compensation. Having said that, a lot of thought will have to go in to the process

Chris Douglas

College athletes are held to higher standards than those receiving full ride academic scholarships. In being a student-athlete they should be compensated for both. Especially as influencers.

They're already getting full-ride scholarships to schools...so why should they make money on top of it?

Then the schools shouldn't get enrollment money from the state

Tim Ream

They are there to get an education. Also will have a limited number of schools with top athletes. Sometimes it’s just about the money.

Steven Huillet

This would just make another Junior Pro Sports system.

Jodi Dwyer

Only if they aren't attending on a full ride scholarship.

Have you seen these electric motorcycles, or dirt bikes, on city streets?

I see kids riding them all over Redmond . North end near Elton middle school and around Rimrock. Someone’s going to be hurt .

Barb Burns

There are 3 in the Redmond dry canyon almost every night.

John Sutton

There here in redmond also. I've seen them by Fred Meyer and the shopping center next to the Redmond high school.

Yes, and they are being ridden by young people. They should be cited by the Police for not being street legal vehicles.

Abso-friggin'-lutely!!! Bs don't pay their fair share due to tax loopholes and because they mostly acquire their enormous wealth thru investments that are NOT taxed, like income is for us peons. They also can pass their wealth on to heirs and there is no inheritance tax either.
