Football isnt like baseball or even basketball. A kid just out of high school is most likely going to get seriously hurt, even at a minor league level. As an example, remember, not all MLB minor leaguers are guys in their early twenties. You're going to be sticking kids against fully grown men. It wont end well.
manziel's $25K scholarship over 4 years enough compared to the millions he brought into A&M?

simple solution to your example, put an age cap on the development league.

regular students get an education because that is how we are going to make money. hig caliber players go to school because they want to hone their football skills to make money. the education thing doesnt mean the same. hell, your argument makes it seem like they should get rid of academic scholarships too...arent those an unfair advantage really smart students have over others?
See other argument on an NFL minor league.

Do you see anyone actually complaining about academic scholarships? Regular students? Scholarship students?

And even if athletes are going to school to play sports, they should have a back up plan. Because most dont make it. But hey, at least they still get their free education

lets be honest, if you can make it to the nfl you are considered one of the top 1600 people to do your job. that is worth a lot of money. get really good at something so you wont have debt.

An age cap? you mean like the one there is to get into the NFL? If there's an age cap, what's the point of a developmental league? By the point players reach the eligible age, they'd be NFL ready.

Manziel should be happy, he's helped out his school's athletic department. They actually turned a profit. the vast majority dont.

I mean, I havent even gotten into why schools cant afford to pay players

im not saying pay everyone. if you create a development league make it a ~50 man roster just like the nfl. not everyone is going to make money off this.

nfl DL - high caliber players
college - everyone else

caliber of college football would be worse, but you could still offer scholarships to those students if you wanted too. they just couldnt make any money off of their likeness

MANZIEL SHOULD BE HAPPY HE HELPED OUT HIS ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT?!?!?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME? what have they ever done for him?

the point of the development league would be to pay the high caliber players some money while they train for the nfl!!!

Colleges should NOT be paying student athletes anything outside of their scholarship, but at the same time the NCAA should NOT prevent the student athletes from gaining any sort of monetary value outside of the classroom.

Let them get endorsements. Let them sign autographs for cash. Let them market themselves in video games to their likeness. That still doesn't take away the integrity of their scholarship, and the fact that they are getting a free ride at a University they normally would not be able to attend, in which their enrollment prevents other more qualified people from attending.

The NCAA labeled the title of a student athlete in a completely different generation. Since then we have seen a technological era take over, inflation rise exponentially, and general rules adapt to cultural society and have not even attemtped to redefine the college athlete because they can't stand to lose a buck or two.

Does Manziel have some sort of "stock" in Texas A%M that can justify an input/output %?
