[QUOTE="TampaGT, post: 631717, member: 1153"] I played in college and I don’t think they should be paid. If you want to be paid go to the pros. I think some are trying to inflate their value. A very small group of college fans follow a team because a player is playing at school X. Unless you personally know the person you not going to follow a player unless he is playing for your team. I will say that is why I become a Tech fan. Jerry Mays played with my brother from midget football to high school. I would have followed him where he went. You are getting a free education, whether you get a useful degree or underwater basket weaving is on the player. Plus it is not financially possible for the school to play players. You can’t just pay the football and basketball teams you will have to pay everybody. I think we can all agree that Tech athl dept isn’t sit on a ton of cash too be paying athletes. Most schools dont really turn a profit at the end of the year, someone on had a chart that show only like a handful of athletic programs turned a profit. So from a school standpoint I think it is a dead issue. [/QUOTE]
