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).

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

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

This would just make another Junior Pro Sports system.

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