but college is the only way to get to the pros. they have a monopoly. both in resources and finances.

for athletes who never go to the pros, the system might work.

College isn’t the only way to get into the pros. It’s the most common way, but there’s guys that go to various semi-pro leagues instead and still manage to get into the NFL. Then there’s the really weird ones like Antonio Gates who played basketball in college but still managed to be NFL players.

So they have a right to go to the pros ?
