Message: [QUOTE="OCESIP, post: 5611806, member: 8702"] From the "first day of collegiate competition" is an overreach. Since college sports in the 50's, college sports has become more of a fan favorite and a money maker of sorts. Along with that came the inevitable cheating (money and other perks to the top level players) which undermined the whole concept of amateurism. But to say that today's world of openly paying all levels of talent in an extremely overpriced market is a natural extension of those years is a reach too far. Players today are hired and fired on a yearly basis, and the ones who are looking for greener pastures just hand in their notice and move on. That concept is unique to today's world only. [/QUOTE]
