We gonna have the players attend classes or just completely eliminate any semblance of "student athletes" altogether? What happens when Stanford drafts some kid who can't read? Or when Mississippi State drafts some kid who wants to major in something that school is trash at?

 

Can't....no anti-trust exemption or collective bargaining agreement.

 

#1 percy
#2 shea showers (idk why, but he sticks in my head)
#3 lito
#4 Lawrencs Wright
#5 Quez
#6 taylor jacobs
#7 Danny W
#8 Rex
#9 shane
#10 Gaffney? Took me awhile to remember gators that wore 10.

I did this as first guy I think of, I'm sure Shea Showers is probably not on anyone's list, but he was just the first guy I thought of from when I was kid watching the Gators. Kelvin Kight, Montrell Johnson, Perine for a season are others I thought of after Shea just popped into my head.

 

How difficult would it be to get those two things?

 

Schools should research things like that before they draft the players. Do players still get free passes in academics throughout high school? It would seem they can't do that anymore because they won't be able to maintain a sufficient GPA to stay eligible in college. Do high school players now take ACT or SAT tests as part of the admission process into college (I'm asking this question because I don't know the answer)? Do you still get into your major in the third year of school like back in the day? If the answer is yes to these questions then how much of a negative effect would it have on the players?

 

Pretty difficult. Lot of other things have to happen first. I don’t think you’ll ever see a college draft either. Only way any type of draft happens is if the teams break from the schools and they won’t want to do that, as that’s how they raise a significant amount of their money. It’s also where the majority of their fanbase comes from.

 

Another good one. John Cappell came to me a little while ago for #10 haha

 

Many kids need to get an education and going to the school that you need for whatever field you want to go into is important to some players. However, once committed, they could have contracts if they make adjustments it may take NIL to get that first contract signed, but they cannot pull the rug out from under you at the end of every season

 

FIFY

 

These athletes sure do get into a lot of sexual assaults
