Why Marcus Allen wants to give you info on college football every Saturday

| |

Marcus Allen, the 1981 Heisman winner from USC, will join Kevin Frasier in a revamped version of a Fox college football studio show airing on FSN and FX, starting Saturday.

Said Allen on today's conference call about what issues that need to be addressed by the NCAA: "The state of football on the field is excellent but off the field there are tremendous challenges. There has to be major changes and we're kidding ourselves if we think we don't have to. There has to be something done to give guys an incentive to stay in school.

"Schools are making a lot of money off of these young men and yes, they're getting an education but there has to be something else. If you pulled back the curtain I'd think that every program is compromised in some way."
