IMHO, if the NFL wants a minor league system then they should create a minor league. It could be the USFL. High school kids who think they have a legit shot can go play in that league and if it doesn't work out, well, college is still there. They could always take online courses during the summer or after their career is over if they really feel they need the piece of paper.
I don't like what is happening to college sports. I attended Texas A&M. You should see all the new buildings that were put up just since the time I graduated in 2005. It's amazing!
How does a new chemistry building make the teaching of chemistry better? The old chemistry building had all the same things, it's just that the building was older. If the old building needed special equipment then they could have put it in.
When I was there there was only one rec center and it was new. Now they apparently have multiple rec centers.
None of this improves education. It's just spending money to recruit, believe it or not, FOREIGN students. And I know this because I asked. It's partly what gives a school its reputation.
I say take sports out of college except for sports like volleyball, tennis, archery etc and focus on education.
