Cam Newton, Johnny Manziel, now this OSU story all clustered together. People were clamoring for a playoff in loud voices for a time in the national media and now the BCS is being bypassed.
With all the national attention, do you think the time is imminent that players will be given wages for their performance?

i think they will be heavily regulated and called stipends. I think payers should get whatever a student worker at the university gets. That would work out because there are so many student worked you can't afford to pay them something astronomical.

They are paid. They work hard and bust their arse on the field and are repaid with a full ride scholarship. Media exposure and a chance to make it to the next level for millions. O yea and a degree of their choice. that's pretty substantial payment IMO

I hope never,because if all the players are getting stipends some of them and their handlers will just want more.

Hopefully never, because the minute that stipends are instituted, college football will be put on a path to ruin. The moronic, self-righteous muckrakers in the media never actually consider the long-term implications of their sanctimonious, reactionary suggestions.

I think SMU and Miami took care of it decades ago.

I think a full scholarship is enough payment.
