Gives them an hour platform to talk about Florida's hire right after they reveal the top 25. Link to comment

Most college educations cost what 80k or so. At a major University like Nebraska? Probably more. I hate the restrictions the NCAA puts on these kids, and heat they can/can't do off the Field, but they're being compensated pretty well. $100,000+ plus education. Free clothes, shoes, trips, housing. And they earn all that by the way. But the argument you hear 'look at all the money they're making these schools" is not a good one in my opinion. Most of us could say that about the places we work too. He'll, I've heard it (jokingly I think) from the guys that work for me. BUT, any-who.... Has that plane made it to Orlando yet?

Huskers93-97 Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Is there any requirement for Moos to log where he is going? Just curious if there is some sort of schedule someone could drum up that would show him on that flight. Link to comment

They can choose to use that on their college education or piss it away and have student loans instead. Why lowball them? The March survey, from the National College Players Association and Drexel University, said that the projected fair market value of the average college football player is $178,000 per year from 2011 to 2015. With as fast as things change, it's probably over a quarter million by now. With the average college football player being in a program four to five years, let's just call it a cool million.

How many of you make 250,000 a year in the job you do? Link to comment

So that settles it. Even Steven. Play ball. Link to comment

As much as I would love to banter back and forth with you for the next hour. I think the rest of the people on this board dont give a crap anymore. So I am not going to respond to help the thread get back on track. Link to comment

It isn't what they're receiving from the school. Johnny Football had a fair market value of $547,000 per year while at A&M. This was his value to A&M. It isn't what he was receiving in benefits.
