https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NCAA_Football_(video_game_series)

My roommates and I are very excited about the college football season, over the weekend we reminisced about how much we enjoyed the college football video-game as kids. I think the article wikipedia has on the video-game series is pretty organized and informative. I was able to go through and read year by year subtle changes and improvements the game made. On a scale of 1-10 I'd give it a 7 because it was a good page but I think it was missing some key pieces of information. The first reference I would add is an article from abc news that discusses why the game was discontinued which is just as important as how the game started. NCAA Football became a legal hotbed once players realized their own likeness was being used and monetized by the game without their consent our receiving compensation. The love for the game is still there and it's fans haven't given up yet on their beloved game. Jarrod Bullard is part of a group that to this day still dedicates time to keep rosters updated as specifically as players hometowns, height/weight, and even using recruiting databases to accurately rate them.

Adding a citation on wikipedia is essential to how it was designed to operate. Having credible references to go along with information provided means that every claim can be traced to a source and monitored by others to ensure that nobody is adding junk online. Now that I've completed this homework assignment I'm going to celebrate by getting a breakfast taco before my 11:00 a.m. class in Morgan Hall.
