Two of the most controversial issues on college campuses—freedom of speech and paying student-athletes—will come together in College Station on October 20 as two college sports heavyweights, ESPN’s Jay Bilas and NCAA VP Oliver Luck, debate the proposition “College athletes should be allowed to be paid” on the campus of Texas A&M University at the first debate sponsored by the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) of the 2015–16 academic year. With the college football season underway and a related federal lawsuit in motion, the question of whether student-athletes should be allowed to be paid is again front and center on our nation’s campuses. And as usual, arguments over what students and speakers should be able to say on campus make headlines weekly. FIRE Debates aim to bring accomplished and intelligent figures straight to campus to show students across the country that open debate on controversial issues is healthy, productive, and fun. “I am excited to see two of the biggest names in college sports go head-to-head for the first FIRE Debate,” said FIRE President and CEO Greg Lukianoff. “The motion ‘College athletes should be allowed to be paid’ is a great topic to kick off FIRE’s debate series. I hope students come away from these debates with a better understanding of opposing viewpoints and a greater appreciation for the idea that all students and speakers must be free to disagree.” Bilas and Luck will face off in an Oxford-style debate starting at 7 p.m. CDT on October 20 in Texas A&M’s Rudder Theatre. Bilas will advocate for the motion that student-athletes should be allowed to be paid, while Luck will argue against it. The debate will be moderated by Darryl Bruffett, longtime sports director for the region’s CBS affiliate, KBTX, and a familiar presence in Texas A&M sports. The debate is free and open to the public. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. CDT.
