When everyone has a degree, they lose their value.  Also, you missed the point of my post. The post I replied to alleged concerns that fewer players would graduate with the current transfer rules.  My point was that many players didn’t graduate under the old rules.  We have built a system where college is expected to for all, while only suitable for some, and affordable for fewer.  Most American students leave college in great debt. Many to most of them will never be able to get out from under the weight of it.  The rush to cash in on this has led to colleges creating majors that have no economic value, just to suck kids in and foist predatory loans on them and their parents.
This is a good analysis of under employment of college grads.  [URL]https://www.stlouisfed.org/open-vault/2025/aug/jobs-degrees-underemployed-college-graduates-have[/URL].

The days of education for education sake are gone, or on their way.  Many skills can be learned with on line tools. When you balance earning income starting at 18 against the cost of education, it can be a tough trade off. Especially if disciplineded enough to max out ROTH IRAs and pre-tax retirement accounts.
