    Maybe, but that's a crap load of missing starters... 32% of their starters are out

    The SEC has the same problem in basketball, UK and everyone else.

    It is but Bama is in mid season dominate everyone mode and ut was vastly overrated. They could easily have 2 or 3 more losses without the horse shoe stuck up their butt that they dropped last Saturday.

    The fact that a Bama fan is on here discussing this while his team is playing #9 proves how boring it is. The regular season is like preseason for Bama. Early in they break in their new set of 5 stars and later they fine tune for the playoffs. The fact that Saban walks the sideline like a pissed off gnome the whole time is comical.

    I am 73 years old. I would like to believe for all those years Mississippi State has been trying as hard as they can to improve themselves. The powers of football haven't change much over those years. There is a reason why there are monopoly laws which in time become over come. The same needs to take place with college sports, which in time would be overcome. Money is power and money and power always wind up with the cream of the crop. We cannot improve ourselves to the level desired without rules that would help us for a time.

    This may be the best point of the entire thread. So true.

    Tusk, you must really get nervous before & during games.......

    Again, we all love college football, but it could be so much better than this. This product is horrible.

    Now they are making Hurts out to be some kind of hero for accepting the challenge of coming to Alabama. Man....... what a challenge.... playing with all other 5 stars against other teams with very few.**

    I feel as if I help feed the monster as long as my (old) butt is in that seat at DWS. Will I ever learn?

    not any more... but that's more a reflection of age/perspective than the current state of the program... I think...

    As a baseball fan, id love to do this and give baseball scholarships to work with
    There was a good start at this when they put the scholarship limitation in place to stop Bear Bryant from giving players scholarships just so other schools wouldn't get them. They might not have gone far enough. Only 11 players are on the field at any one time, 22 total when you count the defense. I don't see why you couldn't field a team with 65 scholarships ... you'd still have 43 "reserves". And while you're at it, cut out redshirting too (except possibly medical). 4 year contracts would essentially take care of that.

    Alabama has had 6 #1 one recruiting classes in a row.

    That means that the best team in college football is monopolizing the 1st round draft picks of every high school football draft

    ShotgunDawg do you realize you are wanting to implement the same sort of stuff that Hillary Clinton does? I mean you straight up sound like a Black Lives Matter activist.

    Sort of eye opening when you look at it from that perspective, isn't it? Not saying I disagree with you, but it is what it is. And yeah, there comes a point when the rich simply have too much. But they will always find a way to exploit.

    This isn't an 'across the board' thing. It's a Saban thing.

    Nfl plays with 53, but they can add from practice squad as needed. I do think 65 is sufficient though
