Entire College Football Team Joins Players Association


Recommended Posts

Encouraged by head coach Trent Dilfer, the entire University of Alabama at Birmingham football team has joined Athletes.org, one of several players associations attempting to organize players ahead of the anticipated future where they can collectively bargain for a slice of the sport's revenue.

"I wanted to make sure I helped pour gasoline on something that is going to happen no matter what," said Dilfer, who was paid zero dollars and zero cents playing for the Fresno State Bulldogs from 1990-93.
