I can’t see how College Football can exist as it currently does. Look for it to become a minor league with only a weak affiliation to any university. They might pay the school the right to use the name and facilities, but the players will be non students.
It’s been like that for decades.
They should have never crossed the line of paying players. The portal only exacerbates the corruption. Billions being bet breeds corrupt officiating, point shaving and general cheating. You could have asked Pete Rose about such things.
College football is getting more and more like pro-football. Just this year, they phased in the two-minute warning, which gives advertisers the opportunity to run one more raft of ads.
Weekday games, which take place during classes and disrupt the educational mission of universities, are also creeping in.
