What a day for National Signing Day!

High school football players all across the nation finally reached their dreams to play college football.

Be it Junior College, NAIA or Division II/III competition, the opportunity of continuing to play the game they have loved since Pee Wee Football is unmeasurable.

For players, families and friends, it is a “We Made It Moment” that no matter what their collegiate career brings them, they will always have that memory of signing their Letter of Intent and no one can ever take that away.

But for Division I football it isn’t about dreams, it is all about business, show business.

You know it, I know it. Accept it.

From recruiting experts and their magazines to coaches flying by helicopters for high school recruiting visits, it is more about the show and glamor than it is about a kid’s dreams.

Now from the voice of E$PN, where they were all over the radio airwaves Wednesday expressing their concern of “entitled” high school athletes and how the hype and hysteria over National Signing Day is ruining college football. Really?

The same E$PN that has ESPNU? The same E$PN that broadcasts top twenty-five high school football games with more hype than a WAC Conference football game?

The boys from Bristol need to get a grip on reality, they built the sports media buzz and are a partly responsible for building the hype machine known as Signing Day. If they feel so bad about the direction of college sports, why don’t they drop those contracts with the $EC and Longhorn Network.

Don’t smack your Cash Cow in the face when you do not like what you have built, deal with it.
