[QUOTE="JacketOff, post: 881410, member: 4572"] If the goal of college sports is for administrators, coaches, and players to make as much money as possible, then moving to the B1G makes sense. If the goal is to compete for championships against like-minded and similar sized institutions, who care for the development and betterment of their student athletes, then the B1G might as well be irrelevant. GT will never be able to front enough money to compete in the B1G. Sure we’ll pay our head coaches, ADs, and administrators more, but relative to our competition it will still be in the bottom percentiles. Is becoming a punching bag for the big programs worth lining the pockets of the already extremely wealthy even more? In my eyes it’s not. I don’t even think college sports will survive through the end of 2036 in the sense that a school provides a scholarship and an athlete enrolls in classes with the premise they work towards a degree. “College” sports will be a completely separate entity from actual colleges and universities before long.
