Ok fine. Don't play college football and not have a shot at the NFL. I'm sure they'll all become doctors and lawyers. That'll solve it.

Why wouldn't they have a shot at the NFL? Undrafred free agents have you heard of that. Have you ever heard of tryouts. There goes more ignorance. Just because they are black they don't have a shot at being doctors or lawyers. I bet if it were all white players you would think differently lol. It's sad the way you closet racist think. The best players on most of the college teams are black. Every race enjoys watching these games in America but when they want to stand for something it's not ok they should just be happy with playing football because it's a privilege. Yea ok

I played college football and I can tell you that the biggest fallacy among fans are that EVERY football player has a shot at the NFL? Less than 0.03% of HS players will ever make an NFL roster. Less than 0.0015% will play more than 3 years.

We watch over 70,000 college football players play each Saturday. Less than 300 will get a look at the NFL. Do you call that a legitimate shot? It's more like the lottery.

But somehow so many people think it is easier for them to make the NFL than being a doctor or lawyer?

I can't tell you how many people have come up to me in my lifetime to ask "did you play football". Their very next sentence is "did you play in the NFL".
