Plus their stadium water bills are very low

So under grad athletes will make, on average, $25,410/yr for in state players and $36,324 for out of state players, and then another $5g's if they're grad students.

 

Not a bad gig.

Partition athletics from academics.

Run it as a business - and athletes can unionize as employees.

Coaches can make whatever they want - and no tax money towards college sports.

Sounds like the courts have ruled athletes are not allowed to get paid while they play for their schools

They already have that. It's called minor league baseball.

Ah.  Nice to see those fee increases are being put to use 

[Gismo]

Athletes should get paid similar to other student positions. $7 to $10 an hour for 10 to 20 hours per week.
