Should NCAA "Student Athletes" get paid?

Poll: Should College Athletes be paid?
This poll is closed.
No. They get paid with a chance at an education and a chance at the Pros.

They shouldn't get paid a salary or stipend, but should be able to profit off of their own names.

No.

If scholar-athletes are paid, then (at least certain) students should be paid as well. After all, part of a university's reputation is because of academics, and the hard work of scholars.

I'm planning on watching SDSU vs. UConn softball tonight. Looking forward to it. But I also realize no one is making those girls play.
