He said he'd like to "go back to the way it was" but knows that's not possible due to the crazy judge who broke it; surprised and disappointed that 9-0 Supreme Court decision had upheld her ruling.

Leave it to Donald Trump to be surprised and disappointed at a 9-0 Supreme Court ruling. LOL.

It’s kind of pathetic that a U.S. President feels a need to meddle in something as extraneous as college sports.

The President shouldn't be involved.

It should be up to the NCAA to handle it themselves.

They’re throwing so much money at the football stars, they are dragging down not only the sports programs but the colleges themselves. The donors are diverting to the athletic programs so they can sign top football and basketball recruits to multi-million dollar contracts, like this https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6867734/2025/12/06/mighigan-state-401-million-donation/

$400 m donaton, $237 m earmarked to athletics at Michigan State.

He is not the first. Teddy Roosevelt saved college football in the early part of this, err, last century.

Do you think it’s relevant that the course we are on will see a hand full of colleges cease being educational institutions and be morphed into farm teams for major league teams who in turn are nothing but pawns for the gambling industry. Within a decade, most colleges will eliminate sports entirely while a select few will grab the money and eliminate that pesky education thing. ,

But as you said, it’s just a minor thing. Or is it?
