I was partial to reduce control by coaches. Particularly the idea of making the professors more involved in the lives of the "student" athlete. He was very astute in saying coaches do look like employers with the amount of control the exercise over players

Just how is a university going to get professors more involved in student athletes? Many of the larger universities have classes with 200-300 students. And won't the professor ask for more money to go along with new, additional duties? And there are many professors who are anti athletics; do you think that professor who hates football will go out of his way to help a player in his class? Or could he possibly do something to sabotage that player's academic standing? But, either way, this is not going away & it won't remain a private school issue for much longer.
