Well with status quo, fans 'give a shit' about college football is in an eddy circling the drain. I'm not saying my ideas are the only salvation, they are just ideas. Seems silly for a bunch of monday morning arm chair QBs to think their opinions matter anyway, but it's frustrating to not see an effort from the powers that be to steer this ship into calmer waters. Excited fans are happy to throw their money at this sport. Many of us are no longer excited.
Look honesty and loyalty are as important to me as they are the next guy. Your indentured servitude plan would take things to a more conservative place than college athletics have ever been. That’s a strange solution to have in the middle of the largest progressive shift in the history of college athletics since integration.
I don’t doubt that this is bad for college athletics. It’s become a business above all else. The charm of college football used to be that it wasn’t this way. It is what it is.
Mountain West, hope for the best.
