Personal Statement: Why College Athletes Should Be Paid

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. Lots of parents don’t mind but what about the families that don’t have that kind of money to be giving to their child, that puts a lot of unneeded stress on them.

Even if people think it’s not fair to just be giving them money like that, then the school could give them jobs when their free and that way they can say they earned the money that they have. It can be any simple job like it can be anything as simple as cleaning around there on athletic field or something. Or even have them do community service when they have time, if they don’t have time the coach could maybe give them a little time to do community service so they can. But i’m not a college athlete myself so I wonder what actual college athletes think about getting paid in college.
Like would they lose focus on there sport or stay with it, I feel like pro sports would like if they got paid because then they could see if there gonna busts. So if they are they won’t draft them for nothing since they already know there busts. Like for example Johnny Manziel was a stud during college, but once he went pro and got money he started doing dumb things and getting in trouble. So imagine if he would of got paid in college, they would’ve found out sooner possibly that he was a bust and it could of saved people millions of dollars. That’s why I think it would be a good idea to pay college
