re: Should collegiate athletes receive stipends?

That already do get stipends. However, I'm in favor of the players getting whatever they can from whoever they can get it from. I don't care if they get a $50,000 car from someone. They go out to eat and a guy at another table wants to pay for it? Sure. Most of these athletes aren't going pro and a good percentage of them come from poor families. Let them get what they can while they can.
