He suggested that the players are not necessarily better because NIL and the frequent use of the transfer portal and put the responsibility of the parents of the athletes to instill resistance to an early age.
“They are young. They have no experience in life,” Brady said in “Great Half conversations.” “They should be the parents. Be a good father. Teach your child the right values. What will keep them in their careers for a period of time? Either football or if it is businesses or if it is the teaching or the Law of Law or the School of Medicine or a trade, whatever you want to do, you will have to go through difficult things in your life. You will have to make difficult decisions. The value is not always over the last dollar.
“So I think that all these things that are happening in university sports, we are prioritizing incorrect things. We are valuing incorrect things. I do not say that it is not important. It is one of the 10 things that are important, and certainly for me, it is not the most important thing. Therefore, when children pass in the right way, they are actually learning the right values. When you have the right values in life, this will sustain you as you will sustain you. of your life “. “

Brady wondered if the athletes in university football can learn “those sustainable features that I think are invaluable for their life and experience in life” and they did not agree that money was the only thing that had value in the university.
He expressed some gratitude for spending a challenging moment while he was in Michigan. Brady was not thrown into the fire as a headline immediately. Instead, he set up the bank for two seasons before becoming a holder for the Wolverines in the 1998 season.
“My university experience was very challenging. It was very competitive. Those features transformed my life as a professional. I was ready to compete against anyone, because competition at the university hardened me so much that I had self -confidence and confidence in myself that what he faced me, could overcome that,” he said.

“I think that if we take away that of a young student athlete, to say: ‘You know what, I know it is difficult to compete, but what we are going to do before you have to compete. We are actually going to put yourself elsewhere so that you do not have to compete.’ That is absolutely the incorrect thing to a small child.”
