Well,the players already get paid (kind of)About $1,200
a month (stipend) They also have access to Pell Grant
(5k)and a clothing allowance and emergency funds.Pell Grant and stipend alone add up to about 17K and there's talk of raising the stipend to 2k...does suck for Freshman who have to live in a dorm and don't get the stipend.

That's right. These players aren't slaves. They are student athletes who are given a huge opportunity for their futures, both in athletics and in the real world. Lots of kids wish they were given scholarships to big programs just for playing sports.
