College Football Doesn't Allow 'Student-Athletes' Chance to Maximize Education (PS; Poliquin)
I am a student at Syracuse University who is very interested in collegiate sports (and may pursue some facet of them as a career), and I absolutely loved your article, "Get rid of spring football; the game will be just fine in the fall."
I have been doing a bit of research and analyzing the college football system here at SU. I am friends with several of the players on the team and they are constantly telling me how they cannot take certain classes, enroll in certain majors, participate in certain extracurriculars, and so much more because of the limitations placed on them by the football program.
I am disappointed with the design of the football program because it can hinder the student-athletes (or, rather, the indentured servants) from excelling in academics and from engaging in the overall college experience.
Several players wanted to take classes that were either of interest or a requirement towards their degrees. However, they were told they could not, by any means, enroll because the class time interfered with spring practice.

ACC Football
Projecting Every Starting QB for the 2015 Season (BR; Smith)
The ACC featured one of the top quarterbacks in the country over the last two seasons in Jameis Winston, but 2015 is a season where the conference has quite a few question marks.
Obviously, there are a few situations where quarterbacks are locked into their starting jobs, such as Deshaun Watson at Clemson and Justin Thomas at Georgia Tech. That's not the case for every ACC school, though, as there are going to be some heated competitions for starting jobs across the conference.
To go along with the quarterback competitions, we're also likely to see some new faces under center for teams. A prime example of that will be the Duke Blue Devils, who turn from Anthony Boone to Thomas Sirk.
Overall, the ACC will feature not only strong quarterback play this coming year, but also young players who are looking to take that next big step in their careers. Let's check out the predictions for every starting quarterback in the ACC for the 2015 season.
