I do not know much about the college sport particulars. That said, I feel the rules, both in-game and at the NCAA and the conferences administration, will continue to be bastardized by media/internet money and gambling interests.

My interest has fallen to almost nothing, as everything seems to be orchestrated. For the players, school spirit has taken a big backseat to player fame, fortune and pro ambitions.

The only concerns a college football player should have is keeping themselves healthy and making as much money as possible.

Isn’t college supposed to be preparing students for their future? What’s better preparation for the future than GETTING PAID? What’s better than learning not to be slaves? Seeking better opportunities? Taking charge of their own life?
