    Pretty funny, but if you are speaking at any SEC school (outside of Bama) taking cheap shots at Alabama will get you laughs and applause. Easy way out.

    Didn't Brokaw flunk out of Iowa?

    @Deuce Wayne is right

    the Scholarship is payment enough

    although some of the NCAA 'rules' are borderline retard status, but that is a different argument

    *education not guranteed



    seriously though the day they pay them is the day I stop caring. I do not want my tax dollars going to the NFL via paying their minor league players

    Agreed. If people are willing to pay for your signature on something the NCAA shouldn't be allowed to stop them.
