Schools give the student athletes plenty. They shouldn’t have to pay them a salary, and it wouldn’t be feasible for 98% of universities. Let the kids who can make money off their name and likeness though. There’s absolutely no harm in that.
But student athletes (and whoever else) who want the schools to pay them salaries at a time when almost no one else can go to college without succumbing to crippling debt...? Yeah those people can get lost. The argument should be about using more of those TV dollars to give more scholarships to students across the board. Not giving athletes some fun money who are already living the college dream.
