All student athletes dont bring in the same amount of money for the university. I support a stipend because they are treated like unpaid employees. Who are we to "discipline" grown men who arent getting paid. A lot of people get financial aid and arent subject to scrutiny.
Word! A lot of people can go to UGA for relatively cheap, like I said my brother went there and he only had to pay for his apartment, which is what normal people have to do anyway. He didnt have to pay no 150K a year or over 4 years like that clown made it out to be. Yeah if you dont get any help, yeah maybe it might cost that much, but for these stupid players (which yall pointed out), then they would qualify for help anyway. If they couldn't keep the grades, they wouldnt get to play anyway.
Students on scholarships are not drug tested or whatever. As long as they can maintain there grades, they keep it, regardless how many drugs they are on. But football players are held to a different standard, even though they bring in millions for the school. They dont get paid for this, but any screw up and it becomes public and you better not fail a drug test. These football players do so much for the school, more so than the reg students (i know this is tough for some of yall to swallow), yet they dont get a dime. Its messed up. atleast a few ppl realize this, and others like this form of slavery.

And dont give me this non profit crap. if the NCAA is non profit, then why are they in business?? Its b/c they make a profit somehow, maybe they dont get taxed onit, but they are rolling in the $$$.
Also did you know the NFL is a non profit organization? Kinda fricked up what can be listed as non profit, aint it??
Also if these players can get 17,000$ in cash each year, you think the whole football team is getting that?? If you have 88 players on scholarship times 17,000, you come up with over a million paid every yr to players on uga. You think that this is actually happening? With the football program bringing in the only profit for uga for a sports program, I highly doubt every scholarship player is gettin 17,000$ a year. If so, then good for them, but agian this seems highly unlikely.
