    I once asked someone at Wisconsin — one of the most media-friendly programs — why they are the way they are. His answer? “It’s just football, Matt. We’ve got kids trying to cure cancer on this campus.” How refreshing.https://twitter.com/DanWolken/status/1028992692796223489 …

        Yup - here’s to perspective - it’s a beautiful thing (and this is from someone who has made a career in football) - and hi.

        It’s why for years I have had only passing interest in college sports — reality of NBA and NFL is refreshing. And hi.

        Bingo! People prioritize sports far more than they should. Love that guy’s perspective.

        What’s odd is every one of these kids carry a cellphone on them, routinely film workouts and post them to social media, yet we are concerned things are done in secrecy?

        More than that, the players have to lead real lives after they graduate. Heard a talk from a UW employee (maybe the same one you talked to) explaining why they allow athletes to tweet openly. Basically said "this is the world, they're here to learn how to navigate it."

        All college players have to eventually lead "real lives" no matter what school the play for. Kind of an ignorant statement.
