Re: Pay for Play is approved: The Rich get Richer. Too Costly for non BCS schools?
Oh good, I was just thinking that as if the top teams weren't stacked enough in the college game, now let's let them throw in more $. Now when a kid is trying to decide between being a 3rd stringer at LSU or starting at Northern Appalachain Valley Community College, there's just one more reason for him to join the big dog in hopes of one day actually sniffing the playing field. And lately when those two teams met LSU's only won by 60... we need to increase that spread.

I know that $2,000 would deter me from taking $10,000 and a new car from a booster.

Entire idea was Delany looking for a way to keep killing off athletic competition to the Big Ten in particular and BCS conferences in general. $55 a week isn't keeping anyone from taking booster money and anyone that's been on campus knows it's not like the football players are the ones hitching rides on the bus and buying ramen now. People on the bus might steal their $400 smart phones and Ipods.

2000 bucks...
College students are in session probably about maybe 35 weeks...
give or take...
I am whiting out part of my post for the benefit of the posters that constantly complain about math...
2000 / 35 = $57 1/7...
And how much do the Major Junior players get "paid", again?

This is not a good thing for most schools, especially those without football/basketball to generate the $$.

Leave useless things like lacrosse, rowing, golf, cross country, etc. at the club level.

This is great. Let's give these kids some money to buy synethetic marijuana and coke. Or bankroll their dogfighting enterprise.

Does the NCAA think that any of these players(football mostly) really think that $2000 a year will be enough. Funny thing is this rule will probably only
help those that follow the rules.

Originally posted by scoreboard View PostI agree. This will ruin football and basketball for starters. College hockey will eventually be just the Big 10, ND and BC. Will be interesting to see how the schools allocate the money. Do football players get the money and tennis players don't? Could there be lawsuits based on distribution of the funds?
