[QUOTE="Bizarro Frog, post: 2767733, member: 27451"] This is all nonsense. Big Time Football is not going to split into a separate division of get paid legally or not get paid legally. Are ESPN, Fox and CBS just going to bury their heads and have chaos undo their TV contracts? Do you think their Alumni would give a flip about rooting for a their school that competes in the semi-pro California league while the rest of the nation moves on without them with no real shot at a national title. Are they going to have a mandatory tax prep class to teach them that they are going to lose about 45% of what they earn in California then also have to pay tax on their tuition at some point? After they get done with that they will be keeping about 30% of what they make. How many will have spent that money, be broke and owing the IRS when they leave college since they are 18-23 year old kids? I also think the uniqueness of college football makes any type of paid minor league football so un-interesting it won’t survive unless every single Power 5 conference does it. [/QUOTE]
