Except, I believe the Ivy League schools you listed do make school free, based on income. I looked it up for Princeton. If your family's income is $65k or less, Princeton covers 100% or tuition, room, and board. I believe they also cover all the books and supplies. At around $170k, it still...

It will not go back. It has been this way since at least the 60s when Dodd was upset at other programs for over-signing and cutting players. Money didn't create the unethical behavior, it only amplified it.

Not exactly the same, but similar things have happened consistently in television channels. MTV was big because of music videos. The executives wanted exponential growth, so they dropped music videos for reality programming. There was a lot of growth, but the music video fans left. When...

I think the premise of the article is correct. I don't think the proposed solutions would actually do anything to correct the issue.

I was only answering the question and pointing out reasons why the top two conferences might enter into a super league. I am not saying that they definitely will. In my opinion, the uneven selections and uneven payouts for the playoffs will end up limiting revenue growth in the long run. I...

If you are listing those, I think this one should be included. EDIT: I saw Stanley Jordan at Chastain in the 90s (I think) opening for someone. His bass player was incredible. Playing a fretless upright acoustic bass. He did a bass solo with nobody else on the stage. The Chastain crowd was...

I got tickets to go watch Mike Dawes at Eddie's Attic in Decatur in August.

From that article, the NCAA controlled the rights starting in 1951 up until the lawsuit by Oklahoma and the mutts. (Related to the CFA which negotiated a TV deal in 1981) While the NCAA was controlling them, they only allowed one game per week to be broadcast nationally.

The NCAA (college presidents) did do this. They were sued by the mutts, and lost.

Why would they want to do this? It could lead to more money and less exposure. It might not, but I think it is possible. I am not saying that this will definitely happen, but I do think it is a very real possibility. If the Big10 and SEC become their own thing of P2, then a players' union...

In 2016, the FSU president said that the ACC Network was scheduled to launch in 2019. I haven't said that FSU "lied". I have said that they heavily slant their arguments, even to the point of making it sound completely different from what it actually is. I think that is extremely obvious just...

The article itself says that the ACC Network will launch in 2019. From the article: Didn't FSU claim that the ACC commissioner extended the "unilateral option" from 2021 to 2025? Haven't there been plenty of people speculating that the extension was so that the ACC Network would be more...

And look at what I found on the Osecola. https://floridastate.rivals.com/news/acc-network-contract-look-ins-provide-comfort-to-fsu-s-thrasher So, FSU stated in 2016 that there is a "look-in" in 2021 that could be beneficial for FSU and the ACC. It seems odd that 8 years later, the same...

I think we are spending far too much energy arguing about the details of something that none of us actually know the details about.

The numbers can be skewed to look however someone wants them to look. Another way to say it is that less than 20% of schools are going to pay 40% of the settlement. The other conferences were not named individually, but all members of the NCAA were in the lawsuit as part of the organization...

What did Ross Dellenger base his reporting on? I assume he based it on what FSU put in the lawsuit. That is the ONLY indication that such a total drop option exists. I don't know that it doesn't exist, but I also don't know that it does exist. There are many ways that FSU's lawyers could...

I don't know what will happen. If I were to make a prediction, it would be more of a super league instead of existing conference realignment. The biggest thing is that all of the conferences are set in their contracts until 2030 (Big10), 2031 (Big12), 2034 (SEC), and 2036 (ACC). Getting a...

So FSU is trying to get the ESPN-ACC contract made public in order to force the ACC to allow them to leave. However, the SEC, Big10, and Big 12 all are against making such contracts public. If FSU is playing hardball and trying to force something that no other power conference wants to happen...
