Thanks that's a great article. College Sports has become sleazier than Pro.
*No draft to create an equal playing field, thus small markets all over the country in the NFL can still win. but not small colleges.
*No Commissioner to step in to try to create rules that are good for the overall game.
*Unequal punishment, particularly if you are a known brand, that the NCAA liked
*You got to the top by not following the rules, but by making sure you have enough lawyers around you so that you either don't get caught, or if you do, you don't pay a price
I could go on, but you get the point.
