Regardless of how much money football programs bring in, most don't turn a profit, so paying football players would hurt programs even more. Then baseball players and basketball players (not to mention gymnasts, wrestlers, tennis players, etc.) want a piece of the action, and the AD suddenly can't afford to keep up with renovations, new uniforms, or coaches salaries. And that's before the lawsuits that the women athletes aren't being paid as much as their male counterparts.
It completely changes the face of college athletics all because football players feel like they aren't getting rewarded enough with a scholarship to a university that they probably would have no chance of getting in to otherwise.
Give it a rest. There are thousands of kids that wish they had a shot these scholarship athletes get. Those that don't make it to the NFL will have a leg-up when they graduate based on their contacts.

Wrong, at UGA the football program brings in a profit, no other sports program does. So football players have earned their right to get paid, why is this a hard concept to understand. Of course the NCAA doesnt want this to happen b/c it cuts out of their wallets.
Also, are you saying that other students can't earn a free ride like these college guys? Also all you guys want JHC off the team, yet yall want us to win a national championship? We need more players like JHC, let alone kicking them off the team. IF we did that we would have a bunch of conner norman's or that white sr wide reciever (not bennet) on our team, and yall will still be bitching about not winning national championships. You can't have both! Answer me this, what other SEC school would this even be a problem like it is at UGA? This policy is getting our program nowhere!
