I played football in college and these fuggin idiot school presidents have no clue what it means to be a "student-athlete". As a football player you start practice at least a month before anyone else shows up at campus and then if you make a bowl or playoff appearance you can be there well after everyone else goes home for Christmas. These D1A presidents haven't got the slightest clue since all the other divisions of NCAA football, baseball and basketball already have long playoff systems in place.

My favorite part of the article is the last point he makes.....such a fuggin idiot.

Quote

Adams said he understood the consequences of an extended the season.

"This would involve only four schools, and only two into the second week," he said. "To answer concerns about the wear-and-tear on the student-athletes, I would consider returning the regular season to an 11-game schedule."

Where was he in the beginning of the year when one of the other SEC presidents proposed the same thing? You now, before the dawgs felt that got screwed by the BCS.

I think he was one of the DA presidents that voted against it.

I take it from your post that you Reschke are against a playoff?
