Jimmy Clausen and Golden Tate...

...are leaving Notre Dame early to enter the NFL draft. They both claim to want to earn their degrees at some point, but Clausen isn't even returning next semester. (I wonder if he'll even finish out this term.) Whatever happened to that whole student-athlete thing?

People used to go to college to improve their earning potential, but it's hard to stick around and finish that degree in communications when someone is offering you millions of dollars to leave.

Is there any doubt that Division I football is the NFL's minor league? The sooner that Domers face up to that the better.
