Well what "right" are you talking about? I have the right to work, but I can't sue if no one hires me. Similarly, high school grads have the right to pursue a college football opportunity, but no one is obligated to give them a spot.

Thanks, that's more clear now. Not being sarcastic, this is a legit question: who would be on the other side? Would the schools form a union also, and the two unions negotiate?

I'll defer to @Bob_Loblaw, but I don't think there's much of a case to say that as a recent high school grad you are having your rights violated by not being offered a spot on a football team. Kinda like when the NBA started taking in players from over seas. Less spots available for college...

Strip clubs? Brothels? On a more serious note, air traffic controllers are forced to retire at like 50 or something like that because they don't want people older than that on the job. Maybe they some how turn it into a job like a politician has, where you know when you'll be leaving before...

You don't think the players now getting at least $75K/year, if not over $500K/year aren't pumped about this? You don't think fans of formerly bad football schools like Indiana and Vandy aren't pumped about this? You don't think the Texas Tech fanbase isn't pumped about this?

??? Could you explain it differently? I don't know what you mean. What "rights" are they looking to have protected that the Supreme Court hasn't already assured them of?

Amazing how this has been said on here multiple times and yet people still think one will just "happen".

It's probably people just not liking the new system and wanting to disparage it, like when my dad was complaining about the 3 extra area codes for the Twin Cities metro and having to dial 10 digit numbers.

Could be lots of reasons. I don't know what my coworkers are making. If I found out, maybe there's a chance I'd get pissed and leave? Or maybe DTA doesn't want to publish what they spend, so as to not turn away the little donations. Right now there might be a bunch of people happy to donate...

Because if your NIL is less than like $400K then the rookie contract is better. Now if fringe day 3 picks are all earning over $500K then you have a great point.

Well when half of them were supposed to be made by the front 7, it's not quite as impressive. ;)

I don't think any student would even notice, honestly. He was in the NFL before any of these college kids were even born. I doubt even AWJr would get more than a "oh, hey, what's up" kinda response if he walked back on campus.

I'd take him as head coach for sure and move Peej to recruiting coordinator. No way I think he comes here to be the DC.

I know the Ohio State QB looks good, but isn't it interesting that these other tOSU QBs aren't doing so hot? Wasn't Devin Brown the backup at Cal this year after not making it at tOSU? And now this guy didn't make it at tOSU and is now also leaving another school. Maybe it's kinda like...

Ok, for anyone thinking this is @MplsGopher, I think the bolded proves otherwise. He's never posted such words like these before. :cool:

Nope. ;)

Things like this are why I come here for news instead of just vanilla newspaper write-ups. That being said, how you knew that....

Lol. I swear that guy has to be dead. No posts at all in 2025? (That being said, if he did pass, my condolences to his loved ones.)

...and you aptly put it in bold font for him. ;)

Yeah, I would. You had a system lots of people loved. Half the teams and their fans got to end the season with a win. Not much arguing about where teams were placed. Now, the one thing a lot of people seem to agree on is that the number of teams needs to change - but they can't even agree on...
