How many athletes are on the cover of anything? 40? 50? At least in the short term I don’t see this as a big deal.

I think it has potential for a major impact. Think local and regional businesses not national brands. Hopefully Zimmerman can find a way to make this work for them and USF athletes

I would think “some” small business will not or be able to pay and will go generic too. I am still skeptical on its programs like USF.

I think it could possibly lead to a more Ed Oliver choosing Houston type scenarios. We'll see though. It will be interesting if nothing else

The beginning of the end of the corrupt hypocritical NCAA. 

Are we supposed to now believe they are now somehow "fair" when they themselves have relegated half of their member institutions to a lower tier where it is impossible to compete for a championship?

This!! F them with this P5 & G5 BS!! If college football get more crazy and changes happen I’m all for it right now as the current system sucks

NCAA Football 20; it’s in the game. I can finally let go of my PS3 who’s sole purpose in life is to play NCAA football.

Speaking of that. Didn’t the NCAA stop allow videos to be used because of this? So now hopefully they can resume with NCAA football and basketball for EASports

Yep they did.  Not sure why they just didnt make generic characters for each team not based on anyone.

If it leads to College Football video games comming back I'm ok with it.
