I’m not exactly sure how good Milton will be next year, but I know he’s not 6-6 bad. He’s playing really well against a really good defense tonight.

I’m actually 3 generations from slavery just like most of the players that play for Tennessee. Most of y’all that are complaining about having to pay players have no problem with Tennessee continuing to blow millions/year on worthless white coaches so yeah these players need to be compensated...

I don’t think Lynn wants a pure running qb, he just needs his qb to be mobile enough to extend a play and escape the pass rush. With Brady and Brees over the hill, the best qbs in the league right now are all mobile. mahomes, Russell Wilson, Watson, Rogers. The 49ers defense was legendary this...

Doesn’t your first sentence pretty much cancel out the rest of your post?

I heard the same thing

Hopefully UT can use Holiday like OSU uses Fields now

If a player is ready to play nfl football then they should be able to go. And yes, it is a proven fact that college football holds a monopoly over all minor league football and it’s because of one reason and one reason only, free labor.

Yeah the college athletes sign a letter of intent, but what choice do they have? College football holds a monopoly on the avenue to the nfl and there’s no way around that. It’s the nfl’s rule that a kid has to be removed from high school but both the nfl and ncaa benefit from this rule. The nfl...

By the way, it’s ok if we don’t agree on this

There is no issue here, not with you or anybody. I just don’t agree with your take on this matter. It doesn’t matter how many words you use in your post or how many lines you quote. The bottom line is this, if the ncaa didn’t stand to lose billions then they wouldn’t give a f***. None of the...

The fact is that tua this year would’ve been on an nfl team and guaranteed $24 million whether he gets hurt or not. Now his whole career is in jeopardy because the nfl has a rule that holds kids out of hs for 3 years simply to keep college football making money. This rule doesn’t have anything...

Are you really gonna give me the education for play defense? Mookie betts signed a $900k minor league contract straight out of hs. Compared to the 100k education and the money that big time college football rakes in, that education is peanuts. If the nfl didn’t pretty much make kids play three...

Let me know where skills and talents are used for making someone money without getting paid in return? I’ll tell you where, the south before the emancipation proclamation. A kid can’t go from hs to the nfl.

The whole “life isn’t fair” doesn’t apply in this situation. The rules where you basically have to go to college in order to go to the nfl goes against everything that capitalism stands for. If you have a skill you should be able to capitalize off of it. Instead, the powers that be exploit these...
