So basically you are saying it's OK for players to go to the highest or the stealthiest bidder. Yea, let's just have professional football in college.

that's exactly what they're saying. I've heard a lot of people say things like....

-why should we even require football players to go to class? they'll make more money in the nfl anyway

-I don't care how much we pay them; not my concern

etc, etc, etc

there is a segment of the college football fandom that doesn't give a rats' arse about the college they supposedly represent. winning is everything. cheating is merely the means to an end. the hell of it is that if colleges gave up football and a "minor league" of football was formed, there would not be nearly the interest it garners now. College football need the colleges as much or more than the players.
