Sounds like a lot of old heads rather go back to the times of guys getting paid under the table and fans acting sanctimonious like their team won NCs “the right way”, without financial inducement. The only niche CFB has ever had was not paying the talent on the field and acting like providing scholarships, room and board was equal.So paying kids somehow fucks with the niche?
We’re back to the scenario where someone is going to stop watching the Buckeyes because the kids get paid?
I just don’t see it.
Fans aren’t going to stop watching CFB due to this, just like fans didn’t stop watching the NFL after all the political/kneeling issues. Ratings will rise if teams play in the CFP that excite them. The Peach Bowl had no problem drawing eyes
