I agree with you. I would not vote an increase in student fee if I were a current student.
I understand that student fees and institutional support are in theory necessary to break even. Doesn't change that it's hard to look at the system seriously when you look at coaching salaries, even at smaller programs.
All in all, the biggest programs and networks are to blame. They'll ruin college athletics for good if they don't figure out a solution that benefits all parties at all levels. More important than our fandom is the athletic scholarships of thousands of male and female athletes outside the top 1% are at risk of being lost if schools eventually choose to drop football.
There is a substantial value now, but what when we are relegated back to the equivalent of FCS or I-AA? Will that value still be worth it? Perhaps in basketball but not sure if football makes sense. Just thinking out loud here.
Playing time is huge (or NIL with some), but factors have to be different with each player. Which player was encouraged to stay, which to go, which influenced by family members or friends; did academics or location play a part? Every situation is probably different.
At what point as a coach to you tell a marginal player to stay or look elsewhere? Roster makeup is important and also factors in these decisions. If you're 7th on the guard depth chart probably not a good situation.
Music would probably be second most. Lots of artists, but how often does their NT background get mentioned? I'm betting more sports stories/scores than music articles.
