Jalen Rose brought up the idea on ESPN's First Take to give a monetary stipend to graduates that do not enter professional sports

What do you think? The NCAA for YEARS has been criticized for making BILLIONS of dollars and the students seeing none of it.

Is this a good idea? Does it need to be tweaked? Would you EVER like the idea to share the wealth?
it would give some players a reason to stay
It is a good point.
It is a good start. Since they obviously can't hold jobs and go to school as many students do some have proposed a small stipend for college players. Nothing elaborate but to help with living expenses.
I dont like the Idea Personally. Kind of unfair to the other students.
Horrible idea, the kids are being paid to go to college to get an education why should they recieve any more compensation than another PAYING student. On many campuses college athletes already have better living conditions why place a bigger seperation on the two. If this is the only way to get a kid to stay in college then they do not need to be there in the first place IMO.
Totally Agree
:notworthy
