College football in general is too bloated. Gameday at Husky Stadium at Alaska Airlines Field or whatever it's called feels more like going to a Seahawks game than a college game.Doog_de_Jour said:
I have mixed feelings about it too. Right or wrong athletic scholarships provide opportunities for many to attend college, for example. The football teams also provide entertainment and economic benefits to the small college towns, like Cheney.GrundleStiltzkin said:
Your probably more right than wrong, but I still don't like it. I fear it will have a negative roll-downward effect on the sport.Doog_de_Jour said:Maybe I’m a heartless wench, but I don’t think these smaller programs should survive this. Their economic model is unsustainable and they’ve been propped up the money they make from playing bigger schools for too long.
Plus, anything that gets the P5 teams to start playing meaningful OOC games again is a good thing.
But like their Power 5 counterparts, these smaller schools’ ADs have gotten too bloated. Time to dial it back. -
And 8 pm games. And Thursday and Friday games. And a coach and players who couldn't manage to be thrilled to play in the Rose Bowl. And moving students to the end zone. And the sustainability awards during time outs. And now the SJWs get to finish it off.Baseman said:

Power 5 AD texted: “You and your colleagues are chasing the wrong story. The virus alone is enough to stop the season. But presidents are terrified of players organizing. It’s the paradigm shift to change amateur sports.”
“You potentially lose one season with the virus. You lose the entire framework of your mission statement with players organizing. They need time to figure out how to attack it.”

Jen Cohen is on record saying she wants to support those players anyway she can. You could say that's just her playing the game, but she shouldn't have given the appearance of appeasement.picalogestabo said:Power 5 AD texted: “You and your colleagues are chasing the wrong story.

I can't say this strongly enough. Kill it. I know that isn't popular with some but college football hasn't felt like college football to me since the BCS started. Horrible game times to fulfill bullshit TV obligations, terrible Jumbotron seizure Gameday experience, asstastic OOC scheduling. The whole thign has jumped the shark. And now the kids demand to get paid. Good, go start a farm league and fuck off. I'm done.

I am probably not strong enough to NOT watch but I hope they kill it so I can break the habit. I will spend my time off roading and doing stuff i always blew off for going to games or watching games on a crisp fall day.Swaye said:I can't say this strongly enough. Kill it.
