re: New York trying to get college athletes paid now too

Why should a male football player earn more than women's lacrosse player?

That will be the first thing brought up. Universities won't be able to afford that plus a free ride.

You will also see these kids sitting out of games and practice just like they see on TV until they get a pay raise for having a great season the year before...I don't see this being affordable especially with smaller universities.

How are walk-ons dealt with? Do they get equal pay if they aren't dressing but practicing every day?

I think if something like this were to pass scholarships are going to start being limited and wont pay for all of college...If an athlete is being paid like a full time employee, shouldn't they be able to pay for their school?
