Also, college football is not happening this season.
Some of it is, but it’s being moved to the spring. (SWAC is doing this for instance.) The Big Ten may change their minds and do the same. They get too much money from football and making their decision last-minute is going to rip a hole in them.
Maybe this whole thing will straighten out those who want to keep up the illusion about College Football being an amateur sport, what with the hundreds of millions in TV contracts, coaches being paid millions, athletics directors being paid millions, journalists covering CF being paid handsomely, tons in revenue from selling tickets to the games and so on.
If this was an amateur sport, Saban wouldn't be paid like he is. Pay the coaches = pay the players.
I can still recall the moment I heard that the NCAA sent actual investigators to investigate whether or not some player had received a free can of coke. Actual adults sending out actual adults to try and find out if someone got a free beverage, because they had to "protect the sanctity of the amateur character of the game" ignoring the millions being paid to coaches etc.
