The Fraudulent History of Amateurism And College Football

I continue to make videos about college football history. Deep history.

This one is about the origins of amateurism - as in, why did we believe so strongly in amateurism before the NCAA was created?

I am getting started with Patreon, so please support me there. I have ambitious plans for the history channel, and they will require hiring video editors or animators to do things I certainly can’t do.

Also, as I continue, I’ll need to pay for copyright materials.

Summary:

College football has experienced significant changes in recent years, notably with the introduction of NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) contracts allowing athletes to be paid.
