Why are they popular enough to be paid? The colleges want it both ways. They were the ones that built the huge stadiums (many larger than those used by actual pros). They took in all the money and paid it to people of their choosing, who were not the ones actually playing the games, because they relied on the public believing that it was an activity engaged in by everyday students. The financial part relies on the loyalty of college grads who lived the experience and want it to continue. Removing the college connection will cause it to crash (which is why the schools, who control the money, are doing all they can to keep it flowing while still paying the athletes as little as possible. The problem is that the courts are no longer looking the other way when the NCAA says, "This is how we've always done it."

While I agree, we're a lonnnnng way from that. It starts with the schools conceding that these revenue-sport athletes are employees, and they won't do that. When enough schools cry uncle, things will change, but not until then. In the meantime, the schools have no business trying to limit compensation for a legal activity. Supply and demand for the win!

@Gerry Hamilton weaver granted another year of eligibility. I assume pope may end up with the same outcome. Probably 0 chance they end up on roster ? They would have to walk on? Or is there zero room at all even with walkon spots. Just curious since the news came out. -

They should be student athletes. They should have to attend classes. Carson Beck received far greater benefit from college football than he gave to it for example. As I understand it, he wasn’t actually a student attending classes. That’s ridiculous. The SEC is protecting Kentucky and Vanderbilt and maybe some others. The Big 10 is protecting others yet little talk about kicking them out. lots of talking out each side of the mouth. -

According to the Texas baseball program, RHP Sam Cozart recently underwent "minor foot surgery as a preventative measure to address a previous injury." While Cozart is expected to be limited during offseason workouts, he's on track to be ready to go for the start of the 2027 season. The expectation is that the NCBWA Stopper of the Year will move into the weekend starting rotation, forming a potentially dominant 1-2 pitch with All-American Dylan Volantis. As a freshman, Cozart led Division I among pitchers who threw at least 50 innings in WHIP (0.73) and batting average against (.140). He was second in the nation with a 1.72 ERA, trailing only UC Santa Barbara's Jackson Flora, who was selected by the San Francisco Giants with the fourth overall pick in the 2026 MLB Draft. Cozart, who went 6-0 on the mound, recorded nine saves, which tied him for the Division I lead among freshmen.

Completely agree. That said, I've been burned so many times betting the over on season passing yard totals. The only one I seem to have gotten right was taking Jackson Arnold's under on passing yards last year.
