College football is such an easy target.  High profile.  Multi-billion dollar industry.   Young men from varied backgrounds coming onto college campuses...really "kids" still in many ways.  Coaches making millions per year.  Millionaire/billionaire donors who exert considerable influence on the programs.  Fans, especially season-ticket holders, who spend thousands per year to attend those home games.  Front page publicity....."Joe Student" has a "run-in" with the law....no coverage....a scholarship football player.....front page.  Have a great season?"Coach, you're a hero.  Here's a contract extension, a few more million and a big smile thrown-in.  Have a really bad season?  Here are your "walking-papers", thanks, you're a great guy, we've really appreciated your tenure, we'll pay the "buy-out".....now please clean out your office and go away.  College Football is "life in the fast lane."  Given all the factors involved, it will stay that way.
