The day Tech or any other D-1 football program...


becomes a minor league team for a NFL franchise is the day I stop watching college football.

Why doesn't the NFL just simply form a minor league system like MLB? It's evident that many players want to get paid, so leave your university and simply go pro. Many of college students have left college early because they wanted to make money (turn pro). Take a risk. That is what life is all about. If you fail miserably, you just blew your chance at a free college education with a livable stipend. If you think you're good enough to be a professional football player in high school, go pro. Moses Malone and Kobe Bryant did it in the NBA.
