hopefully this goes well, but why do college athletes have to go to class, take tests, get good grades on test ect. Most of the athletes get special treatment anyway so they don't learn much while in college. Many times they will skew the numbers to get these kids into schools. Why not pay the kids, why do they have to be in school to play college football?

Because the NFL essentially requires it. And bc football isn't a global support, their only options are in the US, pretty much.

Eventually (I believe) we'll see semi pro football replace college football.
