In my opinion the extreme salaries for coaches in college athletics is why we are now paying athletes. It’s been out of control for 20 plus years. Coaches, administrators, etc getting paid exuberantly and players were afforded scholarships. Chump change.

No surprise here because I have no idea what they are anyway since you have to be a journal star subscriber to even find out 🙄🙄🙄

You get what you pay for. I trust Rhule to find the best coaches for this team. and he has done that. No problem with the salaries.

You have to PAY to Play. As long as Performance comes with the increase expenditures, we are good.

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.

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.

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

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.

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!

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

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

If he practices it will further injure it. Basically the more he plays he will hurt it more not good for the Chiefs at all .

Patrick has clay joints. he can't be hurt. He should have been named Gumby. That's why he's always happy. Go Chiefs.
