Topic Revisit: What bothers you the most about college sports?

So a couple years ago wr had a thread where we discussed what bothered us the most about college sports. I think there were some really interesting observations and I was wondering that if any new annoyances have come about over the last few years
I think these coaching salaries in football are getting absurd

Coaches dictating where early graduates can’t transfer to.

People not understanding the NCAA has no authority in criminal cases

Couldn't you argue that a guy like Saban has a very school friendly contract seeing as what he brings to the university?
I'm sure plenty get paid way too much but it's a bit of a gamble, isn't it? Hitting a home run with your coaching hire can be so beneficial.

The charade of amateurism. It's a billion dollar industry for everyone else.
Equally, the NCAA setting its internal jurisdiction to ignore things like PSU's child sex scandal, MSU's scandal and UNC's "institutional issue."

Other pet peeve is people not understanding that the NCAA cant tell a school what it has to offer as classes (ie UNC and others)

I just think it's an absolute sham to the idea of amateur athletics

Players are paid.

Inequity in college football scheduling and the 3-6 pre wired wins built in to most schedules.
Should minimally require for p5: 9 conference games, 2 ooc p5 games, 1 ooc non p5 fbs game, max of 1 FCS opponent

Teams need to only play teams of equal competition. Seeing 70 - 0 Games are
Also, Too many damn bowl games. It's gotten to be participation trophy esque

The fact that football games are getting longer is pretty dumb as well

I think college football is too much of an aristocracy (and I say that as a Notre Dame fan) and that there isn't enough movement between the haves and have nots. Only 15 - 20 programs have the resources to realistically compete for a national title, and it's basically been the same 15 - 20 programs ever since the Ivies de-emphasized football and the military academies decided that they couldn't keep up...and all that happened like three generations ago.
I don't think players should be paid, but I wish the players had a lot more autonomy over their situation (should be much easier to transfer, etc.).
