Message: [QUOTE="HRE Otto IV, post: 3125719, member: 5685"] Most schools/sports aren’t bringing in tens of millions of media dollars outside of P5 football. College athletics is supposed to be amateur students playing sport. You pretty much have that for non P5 football and all other sports. They get a SHI stadium load of benefits. It would take me a SWC length post to list everything. If you add a $5000 year stipend for each athlete, they are more than getting fully compensated. I would also consider making all freshmen walk ons. You need to get into school on your own. Then earn a scholarship for the rest of your career. Coaches can still push admissions to take kids into school, but it will be fewer kids. It will also force kids to actually try in high school, which only benefits them. Football is a different animal. Give them different rules and pay them, especially with the injury risk. [/QUOTE]
