College sports are struggling with finding new ways to generate cold hard cash, and the Dubcast has an idea: make some damn college football movies.
In the Depression-ish era, college was the primary lens through which football was shown on the silver screen. There's a billion movies from the 1920's through the 1950's about life's various foibles as seen through a talking mule that also plays linebacker, or a star quarterback getting messed up with small-time crooks and losing his fiancée to a stockbroker with a pencil mustache.
Anyway, as college athletic departments look for alternative revenue streams to help supplement paying players, the Eleven Dubcast has a humble suggestion: more college football movies. Make 'em weird, make 'em cheap, but just make 'em! Make the WHAC Hollywood East! Who says no?!? Ads on uniforms probably aren't coming soon, but I've lost all sense of what actually constitutes"soon" anymore, so who knows
