SEC schools bragged about the conference being a pipeline to the NFL. They weren’t bragging about it being a pipeline to medical school.


I would take a 5-year, $100 million NFL contract over medical school every day of the week and twice on Sunday.

Not on their own of course, I just meant since we've now spent years slowly deconstructing the college game, perhaps changing a couple of eligibility rules early on and pressuring the NFL to support a (separate) pay-for-play league would've made more sense.


This is a good point.

Once they water down the college game, the "supporters" will fade away and the teams will be left at the mercy of ESPN.

No other pro leagues have made it so far.

I guess it will work itself out eventually, but college football with student/athletes is over as it is now.

They better get smart quick if they want college football to survive.
