[QUOTE="Rakkin6, post: 5131821, member: 23863"] Really the same way I went on a date has an 18 year old private in the Army. These guys do get $1000.00 a month stipend on top of everything for free. If they can make money off of NIL then so be it. But if you think this won't mean colleges are paying players you are mistaken. I made it on about $550.00 a month 15 years ago or so. And let's do the math right now there are over 180,000 division 1 and 2 athletes on scholarships run by the NCAA. That's $2,160,000,000 a year being paid in cash to student athletes already. Explain to me how the NCAA can afford more money and keep all of the programs. You already have seen USC cut 12 programs from their athletic department. This means less opportunities for all races and genders to attend college. If you think ANY college can afford this I am willing to listen. The University of Tennessee alone has 700 athletes on full scholarship which costs over $9,000,000 a year in just stipends alone. So not including partial student athletes room and board medical etc what are they spending. [/QUOTE]
