The NFL doesn’t get all players from top programs….every roster has a bunch of players from small schools. That would change somewhat but not completely. Hard to imagine the nfl getting involved in a meaningful way like a farm system but it could happen….

Greed is killing the sport we all love. It’s all about rich alums reliving their past vicariously through their football teams accomplishments.
These alums will spend ridiculous sums now to buy players.
The networks want better games to sell ads.
Schools AD’s, Presidents need more money to build bigger, better facilities etc
What about the players? Once they were getting a free education, room and board. Something I did not have. It was great.
Not now, they wear flashy jewelry, drive expensive cars, some do get degrees but honestly most of the degrees are worthless.
I could go on but won’t.
No, they should not be employees but independent contractors if they want to take money and any other compensation other than their scholarship
They should be 1099’d by the university. All money should be disbursed by the school.
Players should get a Percentage of the Revenue splint evenly amongst all players.
Contract should be signed.
