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!

lol ok, UGA and like 3 other programs bring in a profit.

I'm talking about ALL OF COLLEGE ATHLETICS, not just UGA. Even our profits would disappear immediately if we started paying athletes.

I understand what you are saying, but if you pay any of the athletes you would have to pay all. law suits would be waiting to happen. Even if they didn't happen, some sports would have to be dropped. many schools lose money on their overall sports programs. You put a further strain on them by paying the athletes and you will either see many sports get dropped, or ticket prices would double.
