6 hours ago6 hr No. It has been ages since I saw anyone disqualified for drug tests or academic reasons. Are they still a factor?
5 hours ago5 hr No. On the academic performance front there are SO many services around athletes these days that it's hard to fail. I was at UO when the academic support building was built and completed. Those players have a lot of help. They also have a full time job in their sport as well so I'm not entirely knocking it. I haven't seen anything about drug testing in a long time. I'm sure it happens from time to time. I'm sure they'll find a way to disqualify our best receivers of we make the title game.
5 hours ago5 hr No. I believe I just saw that ISU and KSU both declined bowl invitations and that when dipping down to 5-7 teams for bowl selections, academic scores will be considered.Side note, bowls need to go. Edited 5 hours ago5 hr by JabbaNoBargain

NIL is a thing so pay the players and give the winning team more. This can be done lots of ways but still. There should also just be a second tournament like in mens basketball and that should be the bowl game system. Schools are going to be able to pay players directly soon and bowl game payouts could absolutely be part of the equation.
