      From: don.p.del.grande@gmail.com              > > Something else we agree on; none of this "limit this to 32 teams, assign       each one to an NFL team, have a draft out of high school so the players       themselves have no right to transfer but would have to be 'traded', and you       then play for your team's NFL        team when you are done - oh, and all other schools stop playing college       football, except maybe at 'club' level" nonsense.       > We will eventually get there, sooner or later.               No, we won't. I should know better than to argue this with you, as your mind       is made up, but...              (a) If only "big money college football" should exist, then explain why       Division II schools didn't stop playing decades ago. It has nothing to do with       TV money, especially after the Supreme Court's decision that the NCAA cannot       control TV contracts means        that any guaranteed money Division II got out of it went out the window.              (b) Having a system of lower-level teams, each one of which is tied to a major       league team, and allowing drafting out of high school will result in the end       of all scholarship-level collegiate play in that sport? Gee, I guess I'll go       tell pretty much        every Division I baseball program in the country - all 306 of them - that they       should have went out of business decades ago.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
