[QUOTE="Gravey, post: 5131207, member: 2648"] On one hand I say pay them. It’s hard to tell a kid he can’t make any money when his coach is making 4 mil or more off of what he’s doing. Yes he may be on a free ride but he may come from a family that has no money to help him. How’s he supposed to go out on a date or anything outside of the university. On the other hand I say no as it’s gonna continue the gap widening between schools. UT will be able to pay a kid but an Austin Peay or Tennessee Tech not so much. So as mentioned above you can be a starter at the smaller school and not get paid vs 3rd string making money at a major university. [/QUOTE]
