well, i wish you would of mentioned that when i was already saying that and it obviously came from the article instead of leting me post the same thing like you guys were a brick wall. Regardless i still think that the profits from footbal should be spread out across the university, even to the non profiting programs. Letting a COACH make 1 million to 5 million dollars is ridiculous. All he does is coach, not a big deal at all it the greater scheme of things. Sure maybe he should make like 100-200 grand, but that's still a riduculous amount of money imo that's so much money most people wouldn't know what to do with it. And considering the tax payers are getting screwed from all these funds being non-taxable either it should help universities get better equipment for classes or help increase proffesor sallery since many of them can't get a raise with how much education programs have been getting cut. I'm just realizing that training future scientists, teachers, engineers,etc... Are all more important than being in charge of a team tha plays a game a lot of people want to watch. I mean football is fine and all to watch, but it's not the lease bit important in the grand scheme of things.
i totally feel where your coming from
but do you not get that without a coach the team would not be as good?
that a good coach directly correlates with a winning and profitable football program?
seems like its a small price to pay for what he actually brings in. and the notoriety he brings the school.

See, that term pedo gets thrown around a lot.
Is a 16 year old guy having sex w/a 16 year old girl a pedophile?
If not, then how is a 30 year old considered a pedophile for doing the same thing?
I think y'all need to look up the definition for pedophile.

I'd be ok with it if they actually used funds from programs to help the college in practical ways, but that's not the case.
You dont think the 20 million+ that the football program generates goes toward the college at all besides more football?
I dont know that, but i find it hard to believe.
In which case a good football team would indeed help the college in making money for it in other aspects.
Again, all coming back to the coaches doing a good job..
I agree with what KP said, with you thinking emotionally and not with common sense.
I agree that in the scheme of things education is more important, that being said our country loves entertainment and football generates money that the college needs.
