Message: [QUOTE="sholokov2, post: 4722966, member: 6629"] How long do you think it will take for corporations like Nike to assume control of college sports top to bottom, first by subverting the NCAA, then writing and enforcing the rules as they now do for many of the large university academic departments, using grants, contributions, academic chairs, etc. Could we reach the point where the ESPN-General Motors conference teams play the Koch Brothers conference teams in order to participate in the end of season 6 billion dollar trophy, where college athletes are paid millions and after four years are promoted to the Raytheon Lions?. Why would we need college participation at all in these abominable conferences? You can make this stuff up. Makes me glad to be old. [/QUOTE]
