That puts a 5 year scholarship at a quarter of a million dollars.

is that really not enough money to play football?

I feel like it’s the talking idiot heads on ESPN that spoke all this NIL shite into existence and teams leaving conferences. Why was a good thing ruined or needed to be changed?

So do you think NFL players shouldn’t be paid? Because they just play football, they don’t even have to take the PE classes

Are they compensated outside of a salary? Not even playing in the same ballpark on that one. Love the professional comparison though. If you want them to be professional, then cool. Pay your way after earnings

I don’t blame players for getting everything they can. It’s just always been hilarious to me that major college players are framed as dudes who get basically nothing for playing football

Exactly, except that all college education is over priced. But I agree with you.
