The Mob

We disagree with the resolution that NCAA athletes should be paid. We think this because right when when the athletes graduate, they will move on to the NBA and be paid more than before. In college, basketball is a hobby, not a job and if you are really passionate about it, you don't care about the money, you only care about the sport. The main reason NCAA athlete are shown on TV is to show of their skill and for the NBA to draft them into teams. If you are in division one, you are most likely to be drafted into the NBA and earn more money. Getting a basketball scholarship is almost like being paid for what you do but it goes to your education. You will get to have a great education and play what you love.

The Bird is the word

We think that the NCAA should not get paid because some of there schools can not affford paying the players. Also they wanted to sign up for basketball because they wantd to play not just because they wanted to get paid. Also because it is a job not a specific job where you can get paid.Players gets good education.

The Name

We think that the NCAA athletes should be payed beacause the NCAA makes more than 6 billion a year. Also the scholarships do not cover the full cost of collage. College atheletes have their names and images used for merchandise that makes a lot of money, yet they are not compensated. Also what  happens to players that get injured like Kevin Ware !

We were not in complete agreement but we decided, the NCAA athletes should be paid because if a player gets injured playing a game they could use a portion of the 6 billion dollers they make a year. Some of the college athletes get their name used in merchandise and do not even see a single doller. 

THE MEN IN BLUE WITH AFROS

NCAA athletes should be paid for all of the hard work that they put into playing for their team. Also, because their image is put on TV and in video games. Also the NCAA should cover their injuries while playing for their team. The athletes also need the money for college and life because most of the athletes dont have jobs other than playing for the NCAA. NCAA gains $6,000,000,000.00 a year and dont pay the athletes.

Should NCAA athletes be paid? Yes , we agree with the statement that NCAA athletes should be paid because they take lots of risks of injuring themselfs or creating a bad reputation.Also college athleltes have their names and images used for merchandise that makes money ,yet they are not compensated, the scholarships dont cover the full cost of college.lastly they should get paid because the school gets the trophy that they earned but the athletes dont get anything in return for there hardwork.Thank You.

The Spirals

   We think that NCAA players should not be paid, because they might not use the money in the correct forms. If players get injured then the money should be used to cover insurance. If they chose the sport they want it becuase it's their hobbie and sports shouldn't be played for the money. The money should be used for equipment, transportation to away games, and uniforms. Also, most schools can't pay the players so it wouldn't be fair to those who got paid.
