These fans will fade away, get other interests, just like business
Guess what, the NFL works this way, and its step by step in college. The days of kids playing football for nothing while coaches, colleges and fans get all the benefit and they break their back for play, or be restricted to pursue their opportunities.
College football is a business BIG business, and the financial stable programs will flourish the rest, fade away. This is nothing about values or entitlements.and yes Im a player and I am entitled to market my name and brand.,. anyone else in America can. .. . Also as college price for admission goes up, some fans simply will not be able to afford it, and they find other options. Guess what others will come in. Also, next step college football will be pay for view, and only folks who pay get to see it.
Schools like VT are billon dollar enterprises, they will figure it out.
