I think paying college athletes is going to have more of a negative impact on  "the sport", whatever that sport may be.  I don't think it will produce "better" athletes, better student-athletes or better people in general.  Instead, money will just complicate things more for college athletes.Gymnast Olivia Dunne is said to have brought in over $3.3M and if you follow her, she is a good gymnast, but not a great one by any means.</blockquote>
