Call it what it is; a farm system for pro ball. It should be run and paid for as it were just that. As so many things in universities now, completely useless and of no purpose for what a university should be and do.

I agree. Colleges make a fortune off of these players. College football is a very profitable money-making enterprise. The idea that the university is maintaining a football program as an amateur educational opportunity is laughable. Universities aren’t what they used to be — they are money-making machines, just like corporations. Treat them as such.
