No problem - there are plenty of aspiring players with every bit as much talent who would love to have a shot a scholarship playing PAC-12 football.

Maybe we should have a tryout call for JC transfers and walk ons.

The culture of entitlement in the current generation of athletes is stunning. This has happened before in the past. In fact, a similar entitlement attitude is what corrupted and ultimately killed the original Olympics Games. We may just be witnessing the start of the decline of sports in our culture.

“ We may just be witnessing the start of the decline of sports in our culture.”

Yes. I sort of missed the NCAA basketball playoffs last March. I used to watch an occasional hokey or baseball game, but I find I don’t miss them much. I do like football, but by September, I believe I will feel the same about that sport. Besides, who would want to be a fan of a team called the “ Washington Football Team”.
