[QUOTE="bke1984, post: 416403, member: 932"] Well, generally speaking, grad school pays huge dividends. It's going to set you up for better opportunities in the long run than a sole undergrad degree. But set the grad school argument aside for a second and remember that it's not four years of college that earns you a degree...it's having the appropriate credit hours as defined by the university to earn the degree. How often can you switch schools and degrees your Sr. year and still actually have enough credits to earn a degree? ...rarely...so you're probably going to be in the undergrad program for another year anyhow... And no, the NCAA [I][B]cannot [/B][/I]accomplish these goals by settings rules and regulations for member institutions. Hell, they can't even force schools to make the kids take real classes...looking at you uGA (basketball scandal from years back) and UNC...how are they now going to let the schools decide who can and cannot transfer free of penalty? Yes, many things in life are more important than football. This is why the eligibility piece of this shouldn't matter all that much...make the decision about school based on your long term goals...not your short term goals. If you get to play football one less year because of it then so be it. [/QUOTE]
