Nike needs to go back to doing what it does best--buy football players for the University of Oregon. They were actually pretty good at that. I'll never forget the time Oregon signed the Tejas High School Player of the Year. I kept wondering how much Nike paid that kid to go to Oregon. Then he transferred to Baylor after a year. That made me wonder how much Baylor paid him to transfer there.

I've stopped watching college sports, the NCAA makes the IOC and FIFA look like squeaky clean organizations. The last straw was an interview that Arian Foster did where he stated that his coaches at Tennessee would not allow him to take certain classes he wanted to take because it interfered with football, along with other shady stuff. But of course, they're very proud of the "student-athletes" they develop. No thanks, I'll watch the ones that are good in the NBA and NFL and find something else to do with my fall Saturdays and in March.

BTW, lest anyone think I'm picking on Tennessee, almost every other major football playing university has some sort of "General Studies" program similar to what goes on at Tennessee. They ain't the Lone Ranger. |
