Default Re: US sports nuts explain to me the appeal of college sports

Obviously because the Heat, Mavs, Spurs, Pistons, etc. don't care at all.

Last years UCONN team was clearly the most talented team, but they didn't try.

There are just as many thugs and apathetic players in the pros than there are in college.

[ QUOTE ]

1. Players try hard in college because they are hoping to be high draft picks and get fat, guaranteed pro contracts. That is a major incentive to play extremely hard to impress the scouts. Once you get the big contract, it can take some of that work-ethic away. You get paid the same, whether you play hard or not.

[/ QUOTE ]

Don't you realize that a huge % of college players are not legitimate pro prospects, and they know that?
