[QUOTE="GeneW, post: 3840732, member: 27284"] I've been saying for the last 10 or 12 years that College Football is in reality Semi-Pro. Witness that now, today, student athletes can now make money while at our tax payer paid schools, all the while pretending to be students. I've also said for the last 10-12 years that the NCAA will become irrelevant and die. It's the money. It's insane when a College Football Head Coach is making $11.25 MILLION per year. This is just about criminal at a taxpayer supported school. I and I don't give a crap, don't give me any ****, of the popular idea that the football teams are supported by their own revenue. It's all smoke and mirrors beyond that point. These "student" athletes are enrolled at our taxpayer paid schools, under the name of our taxpayer paid schools, and working (not just playing) and enjoying all the other benefits any other students get (and much more than the average student gets). I used to love College football, way back in the days of the Big 8, when it was actually student athletes, and not todays semi-pro athletes who are now making money at such. [/QUOTE]
