good, go compete with the nfl and see how that works out for about 60 of those 70 schools.

Willing to bet by the 3 service academies are part of the 70. Keep Congress happy.

That would basically be the ACC, the Big 12, the Big 10, the SEC, Notre Dame, and those three.

Let them eat themselves.

Screw them. With a brillo pad-wrapped corncob.

The only thing I could see that would hurt the G5s would be if those greedy PsOS would expand their roster and coaching staff limits.

Meh. We can all stop pretending we are the same.

If they do this, you can bet that espn will throw the kitchen sink at them to get that contract. So much so, they will not renew ours or any other G5 contract pooling all the money for the P4.

I imagine a similar deal for the whole of the G5 would be shopped with some combo of Fox/Apple TV/CBS.

That ESPN fix is already in the recipe. Look who is involved in developing the plan.

Not clear to me if this changes the playoff structure. As long as a G5 team can make the playoffs, it changes very little for us in the short term, other than dropping 1-2 money games off our schedule.

I want to see more former players like Reggie Bush coming forward for back pay. Also, are not most of these schools tax exempt?

If they’re not playing G5’s in the regular season, you really think G5 gets a seat at the playoff table?
