I can see schools raising the athletic fees to offset the cost of paying players. They're not going to dip into their profits.
Well, the schools aren't the ones who will be paying, it will be local businesses or whatever. The schools will end up raising fees because they most likely will get less donor money due to donors paying kids directly.
With the law in California, yes. However, I would not be surprised once they see only a handful of players getting paid for their names they will eventually pay players directly from the school. This opened Pandora's box.

All I know is that everything would be better with less Kirk Herbstreir.

Gameday needs to come up the hill to Boone. How do we make that happen?
I think that opportunity has come and gone. Would have been the perfect setting for them to be set up in front of Trivette with Duck Pond Field and the KBS in the background.

Agree on the first sentence. We will need to go unbeaten this year, play in and win the NY6 then win big next year. Really the only way this ever happens is to play probably 3 P5’s and have a strong one scheduled around the 8th game of the season

They went to JMU. Doesn’t seem outrageous to think they’d come to Boone if the weekend landed right.

You’d need:

1. Us to be good
2. The weekend have a limited amount of ranked matchups country wide or none at all
3. The team we were hosting to also be good. Example say Ga southern was good this year and our game with them was on Saturday instead of Thursday. If we were undefeated and Ga a Southern has one loss like last year, it could happen.

Sad thing is the league has seen fit to put some of its best matchups on weeknights. It's good because it supposedly showcases our marquee matchups but squashes any hope of game day.

Yes this is absolutely true. Honestly our home games aside from GSU here on are pretty awful. Maybe next year.

There are 115 teams that are already out of the playoff discussion four weeks in for perspective.
There were a lot more out of the discussion before the season started.

Under the current system, there is pretty much only about 10 teams that the Top 4 will come out of. Sad but true.
