Source number 4

Another source that was really helpful is this Journal written by Allen R. Sanderson and John J. Siegfried. In the article The case for Paying College Athletes, gives a thorough explanation of the idea of paying college athletes. The main point of the article is why and how NCAA athletes should be paid a salary. The article names famous coaches such as Nick Saban, and John Calapari and how they make millions of dollars yearly. While the coaches do hard work the players are putting their entire life on trying to become successful athletes. This source is useful because it displays how the college sports system is very wrong. The players make absolutely no income and one of the biggest reasons athletes try to become professional is for economical reasons. I can use this source for my research paper by helping answer the big picture question which is what makes college basketball dramatic. Also this paper helps shape my argument because in my paper I discuss a situation where recently a player complained that some nights he has to go hungry even after a game because of his financial situation even though he is a star player. Soon after the NCAA released a new rule that guarantees all NCAA athletes will get a meal plan for free. This article just helps me generate many new points to help answer my topic question. Also the article helped me back up these topics by giving great quotes.
