Many college players don't have any money and come from lower income families. Football players in the SEC get about $100 a game, free college and food. The little money they get paid doesn't go very far. Between college and practice they don't have much time to get a job. Personally, I could care less if they get paid for an autograph. btw, I'm a huge college football fan who attends 6-10 games a year. I even go to a HS game almost every Friday night. Tomorrow night, I'll be attending my first college game of the season
