Then make it like Amazon mechanical Turk. Players could put in what they would play for and teams could decide if worth it.

A player would be free to transfer teams constantly. They could all be enrolled at an online school and get a great experience seeing the country while playing football.

you are saying it's OK for players to go to the highest or the stealthiest bidder. Yea, let's just have professional football in college.

What does this have to do with OM or its NOA? The only thing that has to do with benefits to recruits is lodging and meals

that's exactly what they're saying. I've heard a lot of people say things like....

-why should we even require football players to go to class? they'll make more money in the nfl anyway

-I don't care how much we pay them; not my concern

etc, etc, etc

there is a segment of the college football fandom that doesn't give a rats' arse about the college they supposedly represent. winning is everything. cheating is merely the means to an end. the hell of it is that if colleges gave up football and a "minor league" of football was formed, there would not be nearly the interest it garners now. College football need the colleges as much or more than the players.
