re: Out of state tuition and room and board is about 50k per year

No point in arguing about it this will work itself out. I'll say high school kids aren't worth millions imo. They have not played a meaningful snap at a high level. The game will turn into complete shite in a few more years ...look it's already happening with the transfer portal money is already degrading the product. Kids will give less effort and not care because they got there million already and if you don't like the half assing they will transfer to another school where they can repeat living off their name they built playing 2a ball. Nil has already ruined college football, I'm not saying the players don't deserve some sort of living expenses stiphend because football takes most of their time but it should be equal across the board. The reward of trying harder and playing better than every one in the team is you get drafted higher and get a bigger pro contract. Everything woke turns to shite is the most true statement and has never failed yet.

Seeing as most people PAY that during their 4ish years in college, YES!

It's a silly point

NIL is what it is. Some people are just jealous they don't have the same opportunities.

This one made me laugh. Yes Dad is supposed to keep working it's called being a responsible adult which apparently is the lost value starting with millennials to the present day. It's ok our Gen X babies who were raised right will change the culture again in a decade or so. You see signs already

Please explain how NIL or players getting paid is “woke” at all.

Blows my mind that he posted that question like it was some “gotcha”.

There’s over 120 D1 schools, and about 280 more programs in FCS and D2. That’s 400 schools total. You get 85 schollies in FBS, 63 in FCS, 36 in D2. That’s over 23,000 CFB players on scholarship. I assume the number of kids raking in a million is under a thousand. That means 22,000 moms and dads are working jobs during the week.

That doesn’t include non-scholarship players in lower levels.

Again, that dude can spare me the “poor dad” bullshite.

It's part of the woke culture, money for nothing or entitlement. Free education used to be enough, I get it football has become huge and a huge moneymaker for the university which is why I think players "where a sport takes up most their free time" should get some type of supplemental income to replace a job that they could have or should have while going to college. But everybody on the football team puts in the same amount of time they should all be paid the same, the reward of being better than everybody else working harder earning accolades which is seems to be not popular these days is you get a bigger and better contract in the pros when you're drafted higher because of your earned accolades. If people are dumb enough to keep paying high school kids millions then that's on them and good for them I hope they get bled dry for being that fricking stupid. It has nothing to do with jealousy, More power to the high school kid if he can get money from a retarded rich dude.

Supply and demand you fricking dummies.

“Capitalism”

So much crying because LSU wasn’t good enough this year , not because y’all actually believe what you’re complaining about.

Film, weights, class, study hall, and practice. Did I miss the grueling schedule?

I know exactly what goes into it. It is 100x better than any “job” out there, since you all love to throw the word around. Nothing like getting an all expense paid plus a salary for playing a game.
