I would like to narrow down my research paper to whether college athletes should get paid and talk about the state of California being the first to allow this, even though it does not go into effect until 2023. I will look in to see if other states are willing to follow in the footsteps of California. If so why or why not. A common argument for not getting paid is that these athletes are putting everything of theirs on the line - their physical health, mental health, their future careers (if sports does work out), and lastly, their time. With this also comes the question of should they get paid for commercials/ brand deal at least since it is essentially face and their brand. Can college pay athletes for one and not the other? The other argument is that when it comes down to it, college is a place for education and many times, these high ranked athletes are going and getting degrees at the major universities for free. Is that not enough to count as a salary? https://www.npr.org/2019/...
