No way a minor league football league makes as much money as college football does. No way
No one is going to give a shite. Period. For whatever reason people care about LSU vs. Bama and will watch. People don't care as much about the name on the back as much as the name on the front
Now the players might get a salary for 20 to 40 thousand a year, but that probably isn't the equivalent of a scholarship at a power 5 school.
I think these players are making a huge miscalculation of how much playing for a school with a huge following benefits them. Its basically free marketing and exposure to millions and millions of people across the country.
I really wonder if a player like Johnathan Taylor from Wisconsin would have been anything if he had to play for the Sioux City Raiders class A minor league team (or even made it to one)
