$chooled: The Price of College Sports

This documentary highlights the debate on whether or not student athletes should get paid. It goes through multiple interviews which highlight both sides of the argument. The documentary was well put together and accurately shows the position of both sides. However, I think it sways more towards athletes getting paid. Personally I agree athletes should get paid but not by the institutions. So Institutions give them their normal scholarships but then money from endorsements and boosters get split between athletes and the program. An athletics association of the university will then decide how to split the money at the university comprised of the athletes to split the money by sport. Anyways this is an interesting debate for all sports fan and will continue for a long time.
