re: Would you enjoy LSU FB if college football wasn't a NFL minor league?

Not sure as to what you're asking. MLB has a minor league and Alex Box isn't empty
Is Alex Box the only college baseball stadium in the country? The MLB's farm system has pretty much gutted college baseball lately and the only entertaining players making it to college are guys like Bregman who are all stars but get hurt in HS, guys like Nola who are great pitchers but are physically immature out of high school and fill out late and gain velocity late in their careers, guys who have a one outstanding tool and develop the rest of them later in their careers, and guys who can play but have fricked up builds and don't project well at the next level.
I'm sure he's asking if you'd be as interested in football if Leonard Fournette, Jamal Adams, Patrick Peterson, and pretty much every other 5* or very high 4* and physical freak never made it to LSU's campus. I'm sure that all the superfans on this board are going to act like they wouldn't care but people would generally be a lot less interested in CFB if that were the case IMO.
But you should go back to bitching about Johnny Jones and Joe Alleva. God forbid anyone throw out a hypothetical on this board for the sake of discussion

That is what I'm asking. If you look at the Ivy League for example they might have 20,000 in the stands and people do care about the team and the game. I'm an alumnus of LSU so I would care, but I do admit that my Saturdays would be a little more free since I don't live in Baton Rouge. I love LSU FB and the way college football is now, but I do admit I myself have wondered if I would care if all of college football followed the Ivy League model.

Well that's why I mentioned LSU baseball. LSU fans will still be there even if the talent is diminished.
