re: Compensation for College Athletes

UGA has a free clinic?

KSU. The student health fee is currently $51 per semester which isn't bad at all.

Not to mention they get snatch lining up for them, even if they're ugly. Also probably don't have to pay for many drinks if they're good.

I used to hang around a couple of guys that were friends with former 'Bama QB Marc Guillon. They were not football players, but would say they were any time they went out with Guillon. Women were falling over themselves to get them.

$102 more than what an athlete gets.

These athletes get a stipend too for rent which I know for a fact almost always comes in at way over what they actually end up paying per month because they get a set amount but can choose where to live.

My buddy who plays baseball at GT ends up getting like 150 a month or something because the place they live at is a lot cheaper than what they could get if they used it all on rent.

They have a 100% free ride, books, tutors, food, etc... that's their compensation.

Not to mention, the athletic apparel, shoes, travel, bowl trips and activities, bowl gift packages, championship rings and all the incidentals like the best medical coverage you could hope for and summer jobs lined up for the taking...
