Message: [QUOTE="1974yankees, post: 5268809, member: 14003"] I agree with you that this is "entertainment" .. I will also bet dollars to donuts that Geno, Dan Hurley, Nick Saben (before he retired), Dawn Staley or any other coach in America just goes out and recruits "student athletes"..... They go out and recruit superior athletes first and foremost.. The best of the best.....None of these coaches would have a job if they didn't... College athletics is a big business period...This is "entertainment" and fans pay. The networks and universities profit from this.... But it all starts with the recruiting... All of this throws the idea that it's about "student athletes" out the window. I would argue that every single player getting paid with these NIL salaries knows the deal too. Its always about the dollars. [/QUOTE]
