They should split from their colleges and create a sports college the has only student athletes attending. This way they can be a pre-semi pro program. No need NCAA. They can pay players what they want. They can play who they want and when they want. The first thing would be to separate from the universities.WA Warrior wrote:I hope this ruin colleges football, the way they are acting, it deserves it.
I'm in the minority that if it cannot be played on an even field across the board, then abandon the college sports concept and go to club sports and pay the kids.
Let's get out of the illusion of education for these kids, we all know the top flight athletes (the ones that will go pro and stay pro) aren't educated enough to get into college and there's hardly a difference upon their departure. Let's stop fooling ourselves and let's just call it for what it is. Club sports.
For the real student athletes, let's keep it to paying them with a scholarship or go to school based on playing for a sports club.
STOP THE ILLUSION AND FOOLING YOURSELF!
