Quit making the kids go to class and if they drop a ball or fart at the wrong time you should be able to cut them immediately and no longer pay them. No other options to transfer to? Too bad, you're a professional and this is what you wanted. Who cares that you're 19 and haven't been taking classes so now have zero prospects for your future. The TV networks and conferences got what they wanted so be gone.

I'm ok with all of this. Might as well go all-in instead of pretending to be something they're not like they are now. These kids haven't been true amateur student athletes in a long time.

In the last ~5 years. It has happened FAST. Roughly 2018 is when they started allowing free unrestricted transferes wherever the frick you want. Then NIL was born. HS kids are getting paid and then bolting after 1 year because why not. Then conferences started imploding and changing based on zero logical sense.

then you don't actually like "college football". You want an NFL-lite that has younger players. And that's fine if that's what you personally enjoy, but it's not "college football" and a great many of us fricking despise it.

before NIL there was at least the facade of it. Now no one even pretends anymore. It's a real shame. And what really pisses me off is the NIL shite that really hastened the downfall of the sports was brough on because a bunch of fricktards compalined that players couldn't profit from being in a gotdamn video game. Well here ya go! You got what you wanted, hope it was worth it.
