Good Job all NCAA players

You did it. your'e gonna get paid by EA Sports and now there is no longer going to be a college football game produced. You couldn't just have the honor and privelege of your likeness being on a game(which most aren't accurate anyways). i'm sure after the settlement is done and the money is spread out I'm sure you'll earn about $50 each. Doesn't even cover the cost to purchase the game new. Now you can take the dumb APU off of your wrist bands...it can now read IAWB (i'm a whiny B.) or IRFE (I ruined it For Everyone)... but you're gonna get your pay day so who am I to say anything.

I have quite a few great memories from the debut nights of these games and such ...teams created, dynasties formed, etc...

Stinks that this game is done. Been playing it since it was Bill Walsh College Football.
Yeah, I'm probably too old to be playing this game but it's the only game I buy.
Only positive is I will now be able to get through a 60 year dynasty on the game lol
EA distributes game with players numbers, no names given. I never saw the issue here. NCAA and conferences are weak and pulled out.
Shame.
College athletes get a free education, room and board and meals.

So, you're saying #10 on Clemson isn't Boyd in your game?

You're saying that you can't download complete rosters with player names, edited stats, and appearances? You need to learn how to use the interweb better.

I do download complete rosters.
We, the fans are turning #10 into Boyd by editing. EA isn't doing that. They are not supplying a product with his name.
I see on the Clemson roster supplied by EA a quarterback with the #10. I don't see it saying Tajh Boyd.

There is also a WR who wears #2 on the game, but he doesn't have dreads.

players love playing the game and get a huge kick out of seeing themselves in the game. I'm sure they themselves will be complaining next year when there is no new game out.

Any way EA can throw the wishbone with triple option onto Madden so I can continue to have a football game to play in the future?
As for the players getting paid, I'm on the side saying they get room, board, and a free education which many wouldn't have gotten without a sport to do so. Be thankful for that. I've been out of college for 10 years and still have a few years to pay student loans. I'd have loved to have had my likeness in a video game, paid or not if college was free.

I feel the same way..i've been paying my student loans for 9 years and still owe..something most of them will never have to worry about. Then some go and make Millions. Almost all of them will work around football in some capacity and be paid by a professionial team for something even if practice squad and make 75K a year. More than a lot of people.

About 2% of players who play college football go on to play in the NFL. Which I don't particularly consider a lot.

but saying that a lot of college players play professional football, or make any sort of money playing professional football is just wrong.

THere are other professional football leagues besides the NFL. CFL, European, and Arena. If they don't make it to the NFL then there are other options. Or guess what, They got a free education, free room and board to go out in the world and find a job.

I'm tired of EA

Anyway, wish college football would've gone to 2k sports. EA is too buggy, just search ea ncaa football glitch. It's not "in the game if it's in the game" as they claim.
May be taking up Madden sometime.
