That could happen today and would happen today if these players were worth the money.
It hasn’t needed to happen. But NFL players would be developed with or without the college game.
quote:
But at least you are admitting they need to be developed before going to the NFL, that's progress. Now let's see if you can admit that the schools pay good money to be able to provide the best levels of that development.
And the future NFL stars give the schools a hell of a lot better product to put on the field than if you were throwing everyday students out there. More than the worth of a scholarship.
quote:
But the biggest indicator of how silly your claim is would be that currently only about 1% of college football players sniff the NFL. If that 1% disappears, college football goes on like nothing happened.
Let’s see it happen then.
Tell all the top prospects who are poor students or have questionable character and don’t really belong in college, have their hands out, or who are transferring in and out to frick off, but no one will ever do that because winning is more important than principle.
You take all the NFL talent off the field and interest would take a hit.

It doesn't "need" to happen. It would happen simply because someone saw it as an opportunity to make money.
And it has been attempted multiple times and failed. They've never come close to being able to offer anything remotely close to watch colleges offer. At best they are only able to get players who didn't make it to the NFL or only lasted a few years in the NFL.

Not really. Again, skill is relative. There are big plays made by players who will never come close to being in the NFL every Saturday.

Once again, there is no NFL talent on the field. NFL talent is in the NFL making NFL money.
The NFL does not want them. They do not become "NFL talent" until they've been coached up in college football, and matured physically. The NFL doesn't want to waste money training and paying for these kids. No professional companies or businesses do, that's why college and other trade schools exist in the first place. Most people have to pay large amounts of money for it, on top of their living expenses.
And you ignorantly pretend like it's of 0 value despite every bit of evidence that says otherwise.
