I think that they should not be paid almost 10 million dollars because that type of money can go to homeless people and kids they can go to kids to get their diploma to go to college and get a good job.

The Struggle of Paying College Athletes The Coach of a football team is just as important as any player performing on the field. In fact his power over the team surpasses that of any one single player‚ the coach can determine whether an entire season is a victory or a loss.

(In a way‚ you are bribing them.) I guarantee that most kids will have higher grades and will do better in school if you actually give them something they want. Schools
