The 12 team playoff is still a joke. Until the playoff system is all inclusive, there will never be a true playoff champion.

Again, if the P5's have no problem playing the G5's during the regular season, then the G5's should be given an equal opportunity to be able to play for the national championship game in post season. And again, I will state the G5's will probably humiliated in the first 4-5 years, but after that, the G5's will carry their own and the playing field will become more level.

. . . what will happen in 4 to five years to make a difference . . .

I agree.

Once word gets out about how many NIL players career ended due to no playing time, reverse matricULation will begin

. . . they can’t figure out the money, you really think they will figure out the reverse . . .

The majority of these NIL deals are paid to the athlete as a weekly check. When the athlete isn't producing as expected, his playing time decreases which further reduces the production. Then the weekly paycheck disappears. This is what happened with JB at Memphis. As this continues to happen, certain schools/coaches will develop a negative reputation and have a harder time recruiting transfers. I feel the long term impacts on the team will be negative as players will be worried about producing individual numbers instead of doing what is best for the team--think making that extra pass instead of taking a contest jumper.

. . . once the fraud is figured out, the players will just demand all the cash up front or that the vehicle come without a loan and the haves will continue to poach from the have nots, it will just cost a little more . . . that will further whittle down the number of haves as those who only have enough ass to compete as Memphis may have done with Brown will not be in competition for the best of players . . .

Isn’t that what happened to Florida with the QB? He wanted all the millions up front and they couldn’t produce it, so he left.

Here is the 24 team FCS style bracket for this year. This is for fun and I get a lot of requests to see what it would look like. Don’t take it too serious. Enjoy! pic.twitter.com/cLxRWuznXb

Dude copied my playoff.

A compliment, an endorsement, pliagerism, great minds, or something else?

Please explain how the G5 will magically become competitive after 4-5 years of playing in the playoffs.

It won't be magic, and it won't happen, across the board. (It hasn't happened across the board in the P5 ranks)

A level post season playing field would bring in more donors and make recruiting easier.

Yes that's what exists now.

More exposure erases blind trust.
