If Trump had suggested this, you can bet that Romney would find it “profoundly troubling.”
It will destroy college sports as we know them, and therefore I support it.
If you thought college sports had trouble, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet. Just wait til Congress is done with them.
Why should the government (we the people) support college athletics. They don’t need to be paid to play in college.
Then we wonder why the government budget is sky rocketing! Insanity continues!
Glad that congesscritters can concentrate their limited IQs and morality to bring upon us rules about things that couldn’t influence anything of any real value.
After all, college sports are much more important than our overspent budget, massive national debt, untrustworthy and treasonous press, and worthless education system.
Bread and circuses.
What could possibly go wrong?
Just wait for the corruption and witch hunts that will spawn from this.
They’re gonna find a way to ruin college football.
How about having the Pro leagues do the subsidizing since college sports are feeders to the Pro teams.
Why not just pay them and have semi-pro teams sponsored by colleges? Then, if they wanted to take courses, they could use their salaries to pay for them. The pretense of some of these athletes being successful students only serves to lower standards.
Mitt Romney, asshole extraodrinaire.
A free education - while others are drowning in student loan debt - isn't enough?
He’s on top of the “vaping crisis” too, isn’t he? What a gem. A man with his insight and abilities would be a better fit on a school board. Thanks, again, Utah!
Me to 5 star recruit: “If you play football at [my university], I’ll buy 5 of your signed jerseys for $10,000 each.”
5 star recruit: Deal!
Alabama: $20,000 each!
Clemson: $30,000 each!
What could go wrong?
Because college athletes aren’t catered enough to already. Jeezez. Fame, fortune, and being 19 don’t mix well.
Somehow I missed this as an enumerated power granted government by The People via the Constitution.
With the realization that Hillsdale College will be immune from any college stupidity written IRS law for these proposals, the rationale for not taking any federal monies is all the more the reasonable approach. The corollary to this, is that the Feral Govt’s subsidies, loans, regulations and laws should be removed. Let colleges fend for themselves, and the Government butt-out.
Another thing Congress has ZERO business being involved with.
If they just swear their allegiance to communism, the government will make sure they get paid. You know, like the NBA.
with the Romney Agenda,
do homosexuals get only three times as much?
what bonus is given for attacking America or conservatives?
is it yearly or only during college?
