Just let the NFL take it over then, at least they have competitive balance

rules. Just mirror it after baseball. College 🏈 could be AAA, AA and A level teams. With the transfer portal, kids are getting brought up so to speak all the time. The only question is, do they have to take so many hours to be eligible. The smartest ones will get their Masters and PhD’s. We have already seen our basketball players getting their Masters degrees.

I don't believe the last place team always picks first in MLB and the NBA.
