[QUOTE="neilfii, post: 364771, member: 3821"] In a sense the players are being paid by way of scholarship, but I think the education is (or should be) the quid pro quo for their playing. I don't think that players should be paid in cash, but I think that the college should provide each player with an education, and not just a paper one, but one that will enable and empower them to earn a living after football. It should not matter how long it takes, or what the college has to provide in the way of tutors, room, board, tuition, etc. if that player fulfilled his responsibility and contributed to the college making money he should be entitled to an education that will equip him to be self-sufficient.
