The NFL has a pretty sweet deal right now


They don't have to pay for their developmental league, because colleges do it for them. If colleges stopped, you can bet you sweet bippy that the NFL would set something up. The NBA already has the D-league, and the existence of the one-and-done rule is nothing but a naked attempt to not have to pay even more for semi-pro development

The baseball model is not reliant on college. If every school in the country dropped baseball tomorrow, the minor leagues would just swell up a bit, but the flow of talent from high school to MLB wouldn't miss a beat.
