Round 1
I strongly believe that college athletes should be paid It can act as a source of encouragement and will lead to their active participation in college events and they will earn name for their college so that their college can shine and in the future who knows they can be potential national athletes

I just think paying college athletes would turn college sports into a business. Then schools might have to cut smaller sports to afford it, and regular students suffer. I don't know, it just feels like it would mess up the whole point of college.

Look at how big college football broadcasts already feel like pro games, with sponsors everywhere. My opponent makes a fair point that athletes bring in money, but I still worry paying them would make it all about profit. I just can't shake that feeling.

EnviroChampAGAINST
Isnt college sports supposed to be about school pride rather than paychecks? My opponent says paying athletes encourages participation, and that's a fair point. But I still feel money would change the whole vibe, though I can't really explain why.
