There are all kinds of levels of talent.

I made that comment about Clowney, took out the Madden disc and played 14 with SC.

It is so ****ing obvious who everybody is. Hadn't played for about a week, update shows up.

I was thinking man they jacked this up in a matter of days for liability, but it is just stupid uniform crap.

But when you have a team captain with #7 and a star under him, it's still obvios it's Clowney.

But EA can't pay them all and develop the games.

So, like has been mentioned the NCAA needs to take a hit too if anybody gets paid.

EA could absolutely make the games and pay a licensing fee, especially if they limited their teams to the top 30-40 teams, instead of attempting to cover 100+.

FWIW, the settlement was $40 million, so if it's dispersed evenly (which it won't be), it would be about $325 per person.

At least they will be able to rail a decent hooker for an hour.
