Another victory for China and Soros!
If they are cancelling football, then basketball will be next. If it's over, I wish they'd postpone instead of cancel-- wait for a vaccine and start later.
Great opportunity for the program and there isn’t a single team JP doesn’t think we can’t beat this year. These games are great for recruiting as well.
The players get free care while they are in school and they get A. The best medical team and B. The beat rehab.You do have insurance though right? These guys don’t have it. At a minimum The school should give them insurance for injuries that they develop as a result of playing football. Like if (and likely when) their knees become sh*t.
The schools are out on the field playing the games? LmaoThe players get free care while they are in school and they get A. The best medical team and B. The beat rehab.
Body break downs are part of the gig in being an athlete. You become an athlete because of passion for competition and physicality. They choose to put their bodies on the line in order to play a game whether it's because they love it or because it's the best path to financial success. College is and has been for decades an organized amateur activity just like HS. College isnt the boogey man here. The market has decided a minor league wont work. That's because it isnt about the players. Its about the school. If the kids want to benefit from the following the school has for their marketability and exposure to professional leagues, they can enjoy the current system. The school earned that money and following. The school has that fan base. Not the player.

That's your argument? The schools have funded the amateur activity for over a century. Remove Trey Smith, the same people watch the game. Remove Peyton Manning and we all still tuned into Tennessee football. The lack of success of another league destroys your player argument. Without the schools reputation and fanbase, no one cares about "Player X". Data is against you. Tim Tebow at the Citadel doesn't have the success the Tim Tebow at Florida had. It's not hard to see why.The schools are out on the field playing the games? Lmao
They get it. They just assume the common risk of playing the game but they get care of any injury that happens in the field. They dont get WC benefits but they get medical care and the best to boot. To say otherwise is willfully ignorant.What does that have to do with players (who put their bodies on the line for your entertainment) getting healthcare?
