The athletes are why this game exists. The game does not exist for the fans. It exists to provide opportunities for student athletes.

So “whats good for fans” no one gives a shite about.

It always will be about the student. Always.


So deal with it. Because the students are way better off. And what fans think don’t mean a damn thing.

Students? Lmao. They’re the furthest thing from students now. Hired guns. Just another pro league.

If the fans quit showing up, we’ll see how good it is for the “students”.

You couldn’t be more incorrect. The fans is what makes it. Without them none of this exists.

We view it because there are athletes there. When was the last time you saw a game without players being there? I’ve seen games without fans being present.

The athletes are the reason. Not the fans. Of course there is no game with out players.


Yall are dumb. You can play games without fans being present or even there.

Hey dumbass, fans are the reason they are getting paid. No fans = no payday.

It’s killing young men’s futures.

They won’t be able to handle any adversity later on.

Without the fans, the athletes have no marketable product to earn money

Again, athletes don’t get money or that opportunity if fans didn’t exist

If they stop watching, yeah it means everything

You realize athletic scholarships didn’t start until the mid 1950s right? You want to know why? Because fans watched these guys play and they became a financial asset to universities. Had fabs not cared, there would be no money to be made.

And where exactly do you think the NIL money comes from?

I think it’s you who needs to think who the fans would watch if the athletes all decided to sit out a game and just protest when the game started.

What would the fans watch then. The fans are not in control. The players are.

NIL is literally paid for by fans.

A large portion of college AD budget is paid for by donations from fans.

What's next, you gonna talk about how we don't need farmers because we have grocery stores?

NIL didnt kill the college game...an unmitigated transfer portal did.

The NCAA coukd have built a framework for this instead of stomping their feet like petulant toddlers...but here we are
