[QUOTE="Jerry the Jacket, post: 665853, member: 65"] I think what will happen, will be a sort of professional minor developmental league for football players between high school and the NFL. A lot of kids have no interest in a college education and literally are taking a college scholarship because it is their route to further development and entre into the NFL if they are fortunate enough to be perceived to be good enough to play at that level. Remember only less than 2% of every man playing college football will ever make it into the NFL. Basically young men will be given the option to play college football and possibly earn a meager stipend for some promotional duties or go directly into the minor league of professional football and be paid a full salary that they can negotiate with the team based on their perceived value to that organization. This will probably encompass about half of the young men currently participating in college football. Those that decide their is continued value in the traditional college experience will declare for that and go through the traditional recruiting process. This will preserve the college football system and return it to more of a student athlete endeavor that it was originally intended to be. For sure the quality of play will be lowered but in relative terms the schools should be on as equal a footing as they currently exist and in fact there will be more parity among all schools. Just what I think will happen. Go Jackets! [/QUOTE]
