Amateurism is a sham. The sooner we stop pretending, the better


I am sympathetic to the notion of collegiate athletics being about college first, and athletics second. That's just dandy, and there is nothing stopping any particular school from competing at a lower level if that's what they want.

If the Alabamas and USCs of the world want to run minor league professional squads with their logo on the uniforms that's also great. Let them go all in.
