Given the amount of money the NFL makes it ought to be forced to subsidize college football. Get it off the back of the state taxpayers who think they are paying for education. If donors to private colleges and universities want to pay for football over education, let them.
That’s true to a certain extent, but the big-time college football powers are self-financing, for example I went to and am a fan of the University of Florida, they bring in enough revenue to pay for all the scholarships, build new facilities, and pay for all the other sports that are being subsidized, in fact most of the teams in power 5 college football conferences are self-financing, certainly the teams in the SEC are.
