Re: NDSU players getting Paid
I am probably in the minority of this is not a good deal in the big picture. Most student athletes are on some type of scholarship already. While the regular student studying to is paying their way through school. Yes, there are academic scholarships available to them as well based on need, grades or whatever. College student athletics in major markets with pro sports in them may not see the benefits of this rule change. Would you rather have Russell Wilson or starting QB from U of W as a marketing tool? Yes there will be plenty of smaller business and social media business that will probably snatch up college athletes. Who will be looking at these contract for the student athletes so they are not being taken advantage of. YES YES YES I heard it before, the NCAA is taking advantage of them now. Also do you not think the university that are the "haves" could possibly get more of the top athletes just based on marketing potential than the "have not" markets? I guess time will tell on this. As for the student athletes go make bank while you can. We live in a free market country, go get paid.
