re: Colleges Push Pros to Change Their Draft Rules

I'm not sure why this is so confusing to the MSB.
Changing the draft rules to allow high school graduates to be eligible will effectively rid players of their complaints for compensation. You can't be mad at the NCAA that you don't get "paid" when you're the one who was not good enough to get drafted out of high school.
Also, just because 17 and 18 year old graduates are eligible for the draft doesn't mean the NFL will draft them. If they aren't ready, the NFL will not take them. Those players will then go to college, but instead of bitching to the college about their compensation, they can look inward and realize they are to blame.
Put it this way, to my knowledge, females are eligible for the NFL draft. That doesn't mean NFL teams are forced to draft them. The same will be true of high school graduates.

This. Delany made these comments in response to all the people stating that athletes should be paid.
