re: TJ Moe speaks obvious truth about CFB unionizing

Oh and as a former player Gottlieb is probably right, 60 hour weeks are pretty rare. Here was our typical game week schedule:

Monday - Weights only for an hour, no practice

Tuesday - Weights in the morning for an hour. Film during lunchtime if you can make it. Meetings at 2:15, stretch at 3:15, practice at 3:30 that would end around 5:30-6:00. So total of about 5 hours.

Wednesday - Same as Tuesday.

Thursday - No weights, meetings at 2:15, stretch at 3:15, 10 period practice(50 minutes) ending around 4:30. So about 2.5 hours

Friday - Hour Walkthrough only. Travel if a road game. Film Review and Test at night for about an hour or two. So 2-3 hours

Saturday - Game Day. Say game kicks at 6:00, bus from hotel arrives to stadium at 3:30, game ends at 9:30, out of locker room by 10:00.

Sunday - Weights at 2:00, film at 3:30, team meeting at 5:00, 13 period practice(a little over an hour) at 5:30, out by 7:00. So 5 hours

Total is 21 hours not counting Game Day or voluntary film study. Also not counting study halls, but even adding all that in it doesn't total 60 hours.

And that is just during the season. In offseason/summer there is much more free time.
