Message: [QUOTE="auror, post: 3653225, member: 1329"] You're not going to believe this, but college sports is already a minor league with schools attached and people love it. Virtually no fans care if their players go to class. Alumni and local people care about players affiliated with their college team for the same reason people root almost exclusively for local pro teams. It's about the community and shared experience of the fans, nothing to do with the character or nature of the players. There are tons of reasons for UC to pay for it, which is why they do it. [/QUOTE]
