re: Nick Saban pushes for players to 'unionize,' has 'no problem' with athletes being paid

What the new, more professionalized version of college football really needs is a draft, salary cap and restricted free agency, just like all the other pro sports. That'll bring more parity to the sport.

So lemme get this straight... yer gonna DRAFT an 18 y/o kid to a university... a kid who wants to be an engineer drafted by say Alabama, instead of Auburn which has a markedly better engineering program in virtually every field...

That's one of the dumbest frickin things I've read in a while. Do I believe EVERY student whom Nick or Kirby recruit fits perfectly at the University? Nope. But it's the choice they made, hopefully with the help of family, for their college opportunities.
