South Carolina’s Marcus Lattimore Suffers Gruesome Knee Injury [VIDEO]

His lifepath should be playing a sport his loves in exchange for a free college education. If he’s not taking advantage of that then he made a poor choice – no one forces players to play college football. If guys want to play pro’s at 18 they can…. indoor leagues, cfl etc do not have age restrictions like the NCAA. The NCAA is not a body that promotes athlete-student, it promotes student-athlete… this rule will likely never change. Players would not benefit because underdeveloped 18 and 19 year olds would enter the league before their bodies are developed. VERY few 22-28 year olds NFL players are developed physically and mentally enough for the NFL much less some 18/19 year olds. And before you think the NFL would benefit from it, think again. Why would they NFL want to change their set-up? They have, essentially, a free development league that they can use to find the best talent. This is a perfect marriage for all involved… a change is not necessary.
