The minor league would be pretty small and honestly most of the players would be getting such a small amount they'd rather go get a free education.
Until a minor league system happens all we can do is speculate on how big or small it would be... i know one thing, players would make more than they are now in the ncaa system and would be free to negotiate endorsement contracts with companies.

Fair enough. Intriguing idea for sure. NFL is probably happy with the set up now.

College football is the minor leagues. How many minor leaguers go on to play in the big leagues? Statistically very few. The same is true for college football players who go on to play in the NFL.

The major draw to college athletics is what the universities bring to the table. This is self evident.
To think that a minor league system could duplicate...or even come close to driving the revenue that the NCAA does is humorously naive.
