I'd take exception to including Joe in all of this. If I recall correctly he was in favor of giving college players at least some sort of stipend so that they could better participate in off the field college life. Nor do I blame him for his emphasis on academic performance and the importance of leaving school with a college degree.He's making a lot of assumptions/predictions IMO and I don't agree with all of them. I do like how he conveniently ignores the 'golden' era of college football where the NCAA, universities, and coaches had all the power and money and any change to that model is an assault. Sorry Jay - you (the NCAA, universities, power hungry coaches - including Joe) - did this to yourselves. Enjoy it.
Sorry EPC. Hadn't read your post before this. Well, we're on the same page. You can tell we go a little further back.
