Aside from Zion last year, not one college player was really recognizable. Nobody would pay to see any of them play of not for the association with the schools. That’s why the minor leagues aren’t financially viable. If every college team was instead some minor league team, they’d have no fans. Same for football. Baseball and hockey are played at a relatively higher level in the minors. The NCAA should hold their ground on this and let the CA schools opt out of participation if they want. And certainly there should be a paid NBA minor league available for these kids who don’t want college. [/QUOTE]
