There in lies the problem. "Go get that check" could ruin your future as much as getting injured. Let's face it, $2M after taxes, agents, and other fees isn't still $2M. You also could have hamstrung yourself into a terrible situation at an inferior institution because you chased dollar signs. What happens if say Bond goes to Texas chasing that money and Ewers has a down year and Bond looks worse, therefor his draft position sinks and he is forced to come back or transfer again? you also say "go after the money", but what about the money your school invested into your kid? you think the weight program, stipend, clothing, nutrition program, health program, medical program, tuition, room and board, all of that is free? Your spot on a roster that costed another kid a spot on a roster. You don't consider that an investment in your kid and you should create some loyalty to that? I'd question you raising your kid on chasing money rather than seeing out a plan. Saban says it all the time, "we want to set you up for success after you leave Alabama, not just while you're here". $2M will buy you a house and a car, but can you afford the upkeep and property taxes associated with it if you aren't prepared for a future without football since only 1% of the 1% make it?
