What's this?

Next they need to allow kids to be drafted & then decide if they are coming

back like in baseball for football and basketball. These third party folks as they call them (agents) have nothing to lose, but the kids lose their chance at a paid education that will serve them for the rest of their life. They lose it over the third parties empty promises that often the kids and their parents want to hear. It really is a disgusting system built to protect the so called professional adults and not the kids.

In other words, the wrong people are protected.
