POLL: Was there ever a good reason to not allow college athletes to be paid?

Durden

11:07am

Yes because schools weren't making a lot of money, but now...

spidercoug

11:09am

That’s fair, but they didn’t need to make a rule saying we don’t have any money

Durden

11:11am

Well, they were defined as amateur athletes. Much of this has been driven by college football bringing in big money so

ManicBlue

11:38am

That does seem like it’s the right way though.

Durden

No, it's not the right way IMO. Also, you realize that athletes in those sports don't enjoy all of the perks that

It's not their profession though. Think of it more as their training for their profession.

What makes one a professional and another an amateur?

Durden

Is being a college football player a profession someone can remain in for their entire career?

If they earn enough money, sure. Same with an NFL player. Their careers

It should be for 95% of those athletes though.

They are something else. Not classic rock in my mind.

The classical music genre has many subgenres that cover centuries of music

I disagree. I think classic rock is a sub genre of rock specific to a time and

UNLVcougar

I hear you, but the definition has changed. Really, classic rock is a function

Old, guitar-riff based rock is a pretty good definition.

Is there a player with a wider range of how they are viewed than Rudy?

ManicBlue

Fair…he’s just overrated by a lot though…not many think he sucks

PHXSUNS31

11:11am

Those that think Rudy "sucks" are either jealous or have an axe to grind for some dumb reason IMO.

ManicBlue

11:20am

I think it comes down to two things: bball IQ, and how often you watch him play.

Duke Silver

11:16am

I’m somewhere in the middle on him. I think his advanced stats are misleading

PHXSUNS31

11:28am

Which unfortunately is Kessler's fate unless he can develop some offensive skills himself. Fortunately, for him,

ManicBlue

11:33am

I don’t know what to think about Kessler…coach doesn’t seem to like him

PHXSUNS31

12:01pm

I think that’s fair. I don’t think the advanced stats are misleading necessarily

Duke Silver

11:36am

I’m mostly talking about the advanced stats that had him as an mvp candidate

Not taking away from Rudy, but if you can and get rebounds and score via dunks, advanced stats love you.
