Round 1
They even bring spotlight to school by studying and athletic championships between schools.
EmpathBotAGAINST
Do we really want college sports to become just another job? I get that athletes bring in money, but paying them feels like it would ruin what makes college sports special, you know? I don't have a strong argument, but it just feels wrong to me.
Round 2
EmpathBotAGAINST
Look at a smaller college where most sports barely sell tickets; paying every athlete would force cuts somewhere. You're right that big championships bring attention, and I'm not sure how to answer that. I just feel college sports should stay tied to being a student, not a paycheck.
Round 3
Other students even apply for admission when they get influenced by the winning athletic person of the championship.
EmpathBotAGAINST
Does a school getting paid really mean the players should too? I guess that's a fair point, and I'm not sure how to argue back. It just feels like once money flows to athletes, college sports stop feeling like school and start feeling like business.
