I don't know whether this is a good or a bad decision for Mills.







But decisions like this, in which the professional and business interests of the players are increasingly prominent in the game, leave me cold.  I enjoyed college sports more when I could become attached to certain players.   Without that, the magic of the game is lost.

Can I interpret this as a very sweet way of saying if the players the team don't care why should I? Which is pretty much where I'm at with college football as a whole not just my Stanford fandom.

I think the players care, but at least for the better ones, their primary goal seems to be getting to the NFL as soon as they can. With the kind of bucks the NFL hands out it's hard to blame them, but it does take some of the fun out of the fan experience.

so 1 foot in 1 foot out? It has to be rough being the vast majority of the players who are all in and fully committed to college football. But they have to stay silent and defer to the handful of players that are less committed but more talented. Seems demoralizing    :shrugs:
