Report: Big Ten Expected to Cancel College Football Season Monday (Update: B1G Fall Sports Postponed to Spring)

[selmaborntidefan]

Agreed. So many people believe college players are being exploited, but they don't know how good they really have it.

Well, they ARE correct about that - up to a point. Colleges DO make multiple times what they provide for the kids in benefits (unless that kid winds up with a huge NFL contract).

But it's kinda like being in the military and the limitations on your freedoms, the very ones you're protecting. You know that, and you give it up.

(It's like the fact you can't be sexually active and be on a BYU sports team; if you don't like it, don't go to BYU).

These are life's realities. I'm not "happy" about them, but I'm not happy about the reality of death, either.

"football" is a big part of living.

I disagree.

RE: reports of Iowa, Michigan, Nebraska and Ohio State exploring potential move to the Big 12, source at one of those schools just told me, "That would be news to us."

Even if true, it couldn't be accomplished in a month.

I disagree.

Good for you but during the fall months it is part of living for a whole lot of people.

The Mountain West Conference is moving to the spring.

I agree wholeheartedly. I can understand the MAC canceling because they've lost all their money games with Power 5 teams. Power 5 conferences should be playing....the medical attention these athletes receive is probably second only to the NFL.

Good point. I agree. No doubt, the medical attention these athletes get is top notch.
