What an archaic concept......go to college with a priority emphasis on getting a top education and playing football as an extracurricular activity.

As long as football is considered an extracurricular activity, you're playing by D3 rules.

And nobody who has been around the campuses in the past 20 years can testify that the kids are getting the type of well-rounded liberal arts education that they used to get in the 80s, let alone the 50s, when the Ivies officially banded together.

Hubris. Shortsightedness. Snobbery. Lost opportunities.

Lots of things.
