course there are, but how long did you think a sport would be able to make pro levels of money while making it inadmissible for the players to make a dime?

Permanently. It is called amateurism.

That was always a system that was set up to fail.


Do you think that players should have unlimited eligibility?
10 year starting QBs at UGA?
Trust me. Amateurism is different for a reason. It isnt the best players in football (not in the nfl). It is the best amateurs in football.

Once you pay players, it is age discrimination to exclude kids 5 years removed from high school. Amateurism has some basic concepts at play in college football which make it 180 degrees different than professional sports. Too many people seem to lose sight of this.

My man, if amateurism is your bag then might interest you in an Ivy League or DIII program. Because, otherwise, amateurism died out a long time ago. The only amateurs playing at the University of Georgia right now are the walk ons you’ve never heard of.
