Message: [QUOTE="Col. Bleep, post: 3746168, member: 1023"] Largely unsaid here is anything about the purpose of college major sports. It sure has little to do with college acaden=mics. It's fair to say that for most accomplished players these days the object is to play pro ball. Why stand in their way? The NBA should be open to anyone age 18 with a high school degree. That would drastically reduce one and dones and the number of big stars in college ball. But why stand in their way? Major college basketball is now a big time business. The players - the guys who bring in the revenue - should be given a choice to be paid or get an education. And perhaps schools should be able to serve as development clubs for major league teams here and abroad. [/QUOTE]
