I've never seen a D3 check, but it's got to be bigger than the $89.76 that I get for doing a high school game? And we don't get mileage. If we're lucky, we get a warm bottle of water at halftime. One bottle that we split, two ways, two, remember, we're the Land That Time Forgot.

Not necessarily, when one takes into account the time on the road for some of these D3 games.

Which is exactly what kept me out of college ball when I had the chance twenty years ago. Back then, college officials here in Connecticut were expected to travel all the way to Maine, Western Pennsylvania, and Virginia, in New England winter weather, through some of the most traffic congested areas in the Northeast. No thanks.
