You can't be a professional and play NCAA football. Accepting that money would make them a professional.Look at where I originally questioned conns in this thread. He was talking about attending college, not playing football there. |

Not much different than a baseball player going to professional baseball after high school. The biggest difference is the MLB scholarship program is for 4 year schools. Besides that the player takes the same risks if injured or washes out. |
