 Not true

Saying Ohio State bought a championship is like saying you bought a lottery ticket and won — except they just had more tickets.  NIL’s the wild west right now, and yeah, OSU’s stacking athletes like it’s Black Friday. But at the end of the day, you still gotta play the games — and they didn’t win it all.

Been screaming from the rooftops for decades how those kids were being exploited and they needed to be compensated.  Figured it would take a decade to ruin college football.  It took two years.  You guys are talking about the big boys/power fives but for me it's just as sad  how it totally decimated the Coastals of the world.  People actually learned about and cared about the Chanticleers.  And of course NIL cleaned them out of McCall and those other good players.  Gonna get worse.  A defensive secondary or offensive lineman with no NIL blocking for a QB with millions in NIL and drives a 911 to practice is going to cause levels of resentment that will cause him think 'fork it....I'm gonna get mine.'  Hell, all it takes is one cover corner to 'hesitate' a half a second or 'slip' and there's a six point swing.  I honestly wonder if any college that prioritizes academics over field eligibility will ever win a championship again.  Notre Dame maybe.  Some of the Big 10 schools prioritize academics but lets face it Wisconsin ain't beating these SEC schools who are really just AAA teams for the NFL.

Let these teams make mistakes.  Abuse the systems.  Push limits.  Break rules.  The only way to establish proper guidelines and rules it’s to figure out the blemishes and abusers and imperfections in the system.  

let the mistakes and abuse happen so the proper corrections and adjustments can be made. 

College football has changed but it’s not done.  It’s just currently a work in progress figuring all this out. 

When’s the last time we heard of an NCAA Athlete being Academically Ineligible ? 

I want to admit decades later that I let Michael Westbrook, WR Colorado copy my test answers 

Made the NFL. Redskins I think…. Great memories 

That's it, I'm petitoning the NCAA to vacate Colorado's "Miracle at Michigan" victory!!! 

Agree....other than Stanford,  Northwestern and some big ten schools academics aren't even on their top ten lists.  That's my point.....they shouldn't even be allowed to call it college football.  Call it what it is...an ungodly ridiculous money grab and a minor league system for the NFL and CFL.
