Conference notes
My first 5 pages of my paper i felt were a great start. the ideas i gathered from Professor Archibald combined with my own ideas really gave me a good start. I talked about how much players earn for their schools and how many of them live under the poverty level. I also talked about the money that coaches are paid at these schools. I spoke of alternative ways to pay players without handing them paychecks. One was allowing them to sell their merchandise on sites like Ebay or the ability to participate in local ads if so asked. the ideas that Professor Archibald gave me lead me into a new way of thinking and direction for my paper. I went in thinking he would tell me i need more specifics on the facts i was talking about but he shared much more. One idea i really think will fit well is the recognition aspect of college sports. He made the point that this is not all about money there are other important aspects of this. He also gave me the idea of starting my paper off with a story i told about Alabama head coach Nick Saban to gather attention. Overall his ideas are great and will help me write a better paper

I feel you have a really good idea to base your essay off of. I like the notes Dr Archibald presented and I feel the concept its not all about money there are other import things I feel this is good because it ties into your previous papers. I am looking forward to reading your final paper
