[QUOTE="LawTalkin Jacket, post: 983324, member: 1238"] It seems that the momentum was for 4 power 5 conferences and that would be accomplished by the Big 12 falling apart when Texas and OK left. Instead, the Big12 managed to remain relevant and the PAC12 fell apart. So, can't the beast be happy that there are only 4 power conferences and a champ from each can make the playoffs?! Or, now the powers that be want only 2 Power conferences with 20 teams each and to continue to squeeze out the teams that don't spend $2m+ on recruiting every season? It is starting to appear that the only way for GT to survive is to get in B1G. Or if ND gets in ACC for football. But, with all the NIL money and the portal and the talk of kids getting to share in Tv money (which is the only fair thing and will happen eventually), the whole student athlete myth is just silliness. 26 year old free agent QBs signing to play for $2m at ND or FSU or wherever, that is not anything like students playing a sport for their school. At some point the school enrollent part will go away and its just a minor league, but with so much money that its a major league. No 26 year old is transferring for $1m to "play school," thats for sure. [/QUOTE]
