I hope I am wrong. Around 2009 or 10 I said college football would become a Rich man’s game. It’s hard for the average fan to attend more than 1 or 2 Clemson games a year because of the cost. Ask those 30 and 40 year IPTAY members how they felt when for financial reasons they lost seats they had for many years. Some were even boated to the upper deck. Parking spaces were lost.

The players are now feeling more and more entitled. Players use to give autographs for free. Now even the high paid pros charge for a signature and it’s almost impossible to get someone like TL or ETN’s autograph.

Politics has become a part of the game, players do not respect their own country or in some cases the coaches and the fans. For some it’s all about the NFL, forget that college degree.

If they pass the law where players get paid for likeness, autographs etc... then I believe college football as most of us know it now will become a shell of what we use to watch. Look how pampered they are. They now have their own free agency system. If the are allowed to make money off their likeness team unity will be lost, unity locker rooms will become a thing of the past in most schools.

Fans will pay for all these changes in one way or another.

I look for some schools from each Power 5 conference to form a super conference.

Honestly I hope I am wrong. I would not mind being labeled chicken little who over reacted.
