Jeff Johnson and Dr. Boyce Watkins argue that College Athletes should be paid. Jeff Johnson is the host of "The Truth with Jeff Johnson", a show on BET. Dr. Boyce Watkins is the author of "What if George Bush were a Black Man?" and a Finance Professor at Syracuse University.
@JMARKISS00 yeh but what u don't seem to grab is that most of these schools emphasize the sport not education why do you think they give these students scholarships in the 1st place? you try getting an engineering degree while being a star athlete its next too impossible because to be at the top of your game is a job in itself, so give me a break.

The woman who had to beg for money at the church was I think Dwyane Wade's mother, or Tyrus Thomas's mother.

the colleges make serious money of these kids and they dont pay anything (except for the kids on scholarship)... and even so, the kids are brought in to be set up to fail in schools that are much more intense academically... yet the coaches tell recruits they will take care of their athletes academics when they get there, but they can care less

This guy is an idiot. If you can make money in College, then whats the point in the NBA?? You do your time, then if your good enough, you make it to the NBA. Thats that!!

look a here, these athletes should know whats up. Do ur time in school and get that degree. But most of r more concern with reserving their spot on the team than to concentrate on school cause every year that same school they attend recruiting top 150 players in the nation to compete for starting roles

The bottom line is that there is too much of an emphasis on Atheletics in Colleges and Universities. I understand that some students would not be able to afford the colleges and universities they attend without atheletic scholarships, but the REWARD FOR PLAYING SPORTS AT A PRESTEGIOUS UNIVERISTY IS NOT AN NBA CONTRACT OR NFL CONTRACT. THE REWARD IS THE DEGREE FROM A SCHOOL WHICH MANY OF THEM COULD NEVER AFFORD!
