Schooled is a documentary about if D1 college athletes should be paid even if they have a full ride scholarship. I think that if athletes can’t buy or afford things outside of school that they should be provided with money to do so. If these colleges are earning revenue off of these athletes‚ but the athletes themselves are seeing none of it. Not being able to do things outside of a sport like get a job is harder on kids who don’t have a full ride because they also have to pay for part of their tuition

“There are no shortcuts to any place worth going” (Sills 1). In cross-country and track‚ this is the case because all athletes must exert maximum effort to achieve personal goals. Opponents of running disapprove of the sport‚ as it is simply a form of harsh punishment and does not assist the athletes. A high school coach forces his team to complete 20 hill sprints‚ 20 up-downs‚ two laps around the field‚ and the coach threatens he can kick one out of athletics if he or she does not finish the drills

But many don’t think that they do because they earn their money‚ have chronic health problems when they retire‚ and they dedicate their lives to their sport. To begin with‚ athletes do get paid a lot but don’t you think they earn it? Athletes get paid billions and doctors don’t get paid that much but athletes get paid more because they earn it.

So most people know how hard college athletes work‚ as in workouts‚ school‚ and playing their sport aggressive. They’re so busy doing these things‚ that they don’t have time to get a job‚ so how is it they get money to buy what they need? Start thinking about that‚ imagine how much money their parents have to give them so they can afford stuff.

like to attend college as well as play a sport‚ soccer in particular‚ and I’m reaching out to you‚ regarding the fact that no current students get paid any salary for playing any sport at college level. Many practicing athletes dedicate most of their time and money‚ as well as their focus on the sport rather than school or other daily activities. In all due respect‚ students deserve to be paid in return for keeping the athletic department alive and running. Ironically‚ the college television networks

Why is a professional athlete able to get away with certain crimes that a normal everyday person couldn’t get away with? There isn’t a good enough answer to that question today. Some judges and law enforcement seem to look passed the wrong doing of a professional athlete because of their social status or importance to the league or association. Obviously this is unjust‚ athletes can’t get away with what whatever they want just because of the status they hold. One definition of the judicial system

The National Collegiate Athletic Association‚ NCAA‚ made a billion dollars on the games during March Madness and even after the nets were cut and a champion was crowned not a single player was give any money.
