Recruits talking about schools showing them love during recruiting isn't about feelings. The problem is that pro basketball and football teams have, over time, turned colleges into their minor league system and the NCAA/Schools were super-happy to play along because they got [B]PAID[/B]. Now they're in a tough spot because what they're selling is worth far more but they can't publicly admit that the athletes are the employees and the NFL and NBA don't care about what a pain in the ass it is for universities to operate professional sports franchises.[U][/U] [/QUOTE]
