What if there's a revolution happening in college athletics, where more "prominent" academics schools are willing to end the charade of college football having anything to do with college and return to actual "student athletes."
In that regard, the Napier hire makes perfect sense. Leave all that semi pro stuff to less serious schools and place an emphasis on academics.
I'm not totally against that. Let the UGA's and Bama's play that game where they pretend their football players are college students.
Here's how naive I was, many years ago I remember watching Cadillac Williams being interviewed after a win and this guy was really attempting to speak English with all his might. I was baffled because I kept thinking, "this guy is a college graduate!" Once I got to college a few years later, I realized I had been hoodwinked and bamboozled.
