So your post is about LSU not college athletics. Figured.

I have complained about both. I’m totally ok with kids being paid but cap it. Stop paying these outrageous sums to players that have not even taken a snap in college football. No transfers unless you are a Sr. There is even a way to have pro players in college ball. All Jr’s can be drafted. If they are not a 1st, 2nd, or 3rd round pick then allow them too stay in college as long as they do not participate in any way with the pro team that drafted them. Just doing all this by the seat of our pants by judge is killing the game though.

That’s a good way to describe it. College football needs a leader. The NCAA has been replaced by judges.

You didn't want it to stop when a pro basketball player for Alabama played in t games?.

Funny how it works.

Not every Alabama fan agreed with that.

The QBs are getting paid 4 million but this is your breaking point?

Eh, i'm done. If I'm going to watch professional football the NFL is by far the superior product

That’s the point. There is nobody in charge except judges. Paying 4 mill for any college player is dumb. Paying guys right of high school the amount they make is crazy. Cap college football at a much more reasonable level.

My true breaking point will be one more expansion of the playoffs. College football has always had the best and most important regular season in sports. Without that kind of regular season this sport will really become uninteresting.

Bama had already done that for everyone. Forget last year already?
