[QUOTE="Root4GT, post: 932009, member: 5618"] Your take is understandable. However, when College Athletic Departments take in near $200M per year any the players really get no true monetary compensation the system is flawed. I did like ACC basketball much much better in the days of the 8 team ACC. We truly did know all our players and all the good players on the other 7 conference teams Free Agency in pro sports makes it a bit harder to know “your” team. In the MFL true free agency didn’t arrive until the mid 1990s. Prior to then players were basically at the mercy of team owners. Very biased system. Most NFL players have a very short window for making money. Drafted rookie contracts are set by where the player is chosen. First round picks are 4 year contracts with a team 5th year option. All others are 4 year contracts. Most drafted players don’t get a 2nd contract. Most NFL players suffer significant damage to their bodies. The very elite players do make big bucks. If you believe in market value concept they are not overpaid. NFL owners make over$100B in profit is they chose to sell their team. They are the rich dudes who don’t do much for their great profits.
