The Farce of College Sports Today

This applies mainly for College FB and BB
NCAA - corrupt greedy organization that does not have the students interest at heart at all. The only thing they care about is money. They don't really care about cheating. Only bad reactionary press , then they in-force the rules to make the bad press go away and satisfy the outrage mob
Sports Media - Propping up the false narrative that college sports has integrity is fair and everyone is playing by the same rules is laughable and an outright lie. There are billions of dollars at stake for the success of the product on the field/court. They will ALWAYS PROTECT their bottom line and the best most traditional brands WILL ALWAYS be protected.
Universities - The presidents and AD's in the current age of our education system are egotistical academic blowhards who only care about their reputation. They only care about winning if it affects their Bottom Line, money. Money for the university.
So who holds the power in all this? THE FANS. THE ONES WHO SPEND THE MONEY. Without us, they have no profit to sell.
Will Wade is doing what he was hired to do. Anyone who says otherwise and he was a cheater is delusional. If the FBI thing wasn't a part of this he would be Alleva and FKings darling boy, because he would be doing what EVER SINGLE COACH is doing in America. I hate the dishonesty from all the parties listed above, they are just as dirty as they claim coach FRANK WILLIAM WADE is.

Sounds kinda like politics

People that believe some major programs are clean and play by the rules are just stupid.

Go back to real student athletes

Then there would be very little interest and very little money to be made.

Its possible now, cant put the toothpaste back in the tube. My suggestion is that the Sports Programs of all major universities separate from the academic side of the school and become their own SPORTS ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS .
If a player is going to school to play football or basketball , let his degree be in football or basketball. Create academic programs in sports training , coaching , sports business. They need to have their own president and chancellor.
No different than going to a trade school. Except their trade is their desired sport

This!
Every top 25 program in every major sport provides money and or extra benefits to players. LSU's freaking tennis team was caught doing providing benefits

This is correct. Every university president and AD at all of the major programs not only know but expect coaches to do whatever it takes to win. Emmert was a huge supporter of winning big in college athletics in order to grow your brand, increase enrollment, and garner grant dollars. He knew and tacitly supported cheating to that end.
The NCAA only reacts to publicly reported infractions of cheating in recruiting. Name one time they started an investigation without the news being public first. They only test for drugs and monitor too much contact. It is a sham and I hope it becomes clear when all of the wiretap recording become public.

They think they are unpaid interns or slaves so that’s not happening.
I’m about sick of all of them, the schools, admins, coaches and the players.
