If you disagree, you don't believe in the very concept of "student-athletes."
I'd love to see ND form a league with other academically-minded schools and hire a disciplinarian coach who brings in smart, tough players and plays triple-option type football.
Sooner or later it will indeed happen and I will enjoy watching right-wingers here rationalize paying players, accepting some quasi-Marxist argument about these poor, exploited players who receive free college educations with all sorts of academic support.
