While I love the idea of it RWS has a point about it being a distraction in during practice.  It'd be real easy to lose focus on a good practice because you're performing for the cameras.  When it's all said and done it will depend on the maturity of the kids if they can handle it.

Could be but hopefully, most of these guys (Excluding the freshmen) have been in the spotlight.  They do interviews and are filmed at practice and play in front of 75,000 plus every Saturday along with a few million TV viewers.  It's part of the whole package and the exposure is what a lot of these guys are here for in the first place.

Believe it or not, for most of them, it's not that wonderful educational experience

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

I remember back in '02, while in the Barracks, watching a behind the scenes show on ESPN involving Texas A&M.  I thought it was fuckin' cool.  If I remember correctly, they followed 4 or 5 football players around and went through their everyday life, they showed the students coming to the stadium the night beforea a home game to practice their cheers, then they showed everyone partying.
