Faculty should control college football says Dr Jacobs
Dr Thornwell Jacobs president of Oglethorpe University argues football suffers from a vicious management system. Alumni students and outside businessmen control athletics while faculties lack interest and authority. He says physical culture should be faculty governed with coaches under supervision. He supports self help scholarships for athletes and non athletes and argues athletes can be amateurs receiving less pay than amateurs in other sports. He insists there is no overemphasis on football and that athletics demand time but still merit attention.
