The problem is that they would definitely be directly competing with college ball, but heck, it's a business.
Colleges are supposedly in the business of educating young people instead of being the minor league of football.. Perhaps MLF would force colleges to refocus on education. I have no doubt I'm not alone in this thinking..
I'm hoping Malone makes a big splash especially in the regular season.
There has been quite a few minor leagues. Most fail because they took players that failed to get into the NFL after college
But....I read that they are trying to make a new developmental league
