Wait until some other football teams (Michigan, for example) figure out what kind of power they have. The revenue from some of these teams is enormous. There is a real problem brewing for schools that have become dependent on these teams.
In Michigan, we the people vote on college administration seats at UofM and MSU.
Yes, the same people who stirred this up could probably find a way to stir up the same problem almost anywhere they choose to and it would be a big financial problem in a place that is only ancillary to the real mission of the university.
There's only about 15 more months of it left though, only one football season. Maybe some people will learn something about small factions of people holding everyone else hostage with... whatever...
But football? Come on, we all love football, (see screenname), but if you guys (certain football players, not you, Tau) are going to pull this crap you can just go home and we'll eat the financial loss, and you guys can go do whatever instead of experiencing college life for 4 or 5 years, and maybe learning something too.
Then after all this race crap dies down maybe we'll start up a football team again, or maybe not. Life goes on either way.
So yeah, I suppose I see your point. :)
