Friday Night Lights!!
Headed to the @grayson_fb vs. @buford_football game tonight to see what the hype is about.
Phenomenal take. Don’t think I disagreed with a word he said.
Our guy @ReceDavis gave a very thoughtful perspective on the entire pro player thing and the state of college sports. He’s always great.

My guy @Truthh4 is a 1000% correct.
I'm so sick and tired of administrators, media people, bureaucrats, and politicians dictate the game we love without getting player input.
Keith lived it and continues to be a major part of the game - listen to him! #GoDawgs

The reality is that most of this kids will never make this type of lump sum money again.
Are they earning it? Yes.
Are there going to be adverse long-term effects as they transition to “regular” life post college? Absolutely.
And at the moment there is no unified structure to support that reality. A CBA is needed and will come.
