During the school year of 2016-2017, NCAA Divisions I and II schools provided more than $2.9 billion dollars in athletics scholarships. They accommodated more than 150,000 student-athletes. On the other hand, division III schools do not offer student-athletic scholarships. Each year only about two percent of high school athletes are awarded athletics scholarships to compete in college. Of the students participating in college football, very few make it to the league to become professional athletes

While Vince Young led the Longhorns to a national championship, Texas earned a reported $42 million profit from football during the '05-'06 fiscal year. Michigan earned approximately $37 million, while Florida earned $32 million during that same period. Where does all the money come from? You already know.

This is due to the fact that people are starting to view college athletics as more of a business then just a program at colleges and universities. The research question that is posed based on this topic is should colleges and universities

Division 1 athletes should be paid or not. I explain the situation to the readers that do not have much background knowledge of the topic. I go on to say that Division 1 players should be paid because they do not have much money to buy necessities. The NCAA does not allow players to get jobs due to the workload required for their particular sport. The athletes also cannot sell their items or autographed items for revenue. My next reason athletes should be paid is because they are the core of the collegiate

have scouted high school athletes to join the college experience. The NCAA has used their brand to expand business in local economies and their net worth is approximately $10 billion. If you took all the professional teams in Atlanta, it wouldn’t even be half of the NCAA net worth. The NCAA is taking advantage of college athletes because they don’t want to pay them for their talent. March Madness is here, which means the NCAA is going to earn another billion dollars worth of branding. I believe
