[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 728331, member: 265"] Good post, but I would make this caveat. Most of the college football programs in the country [I]don't make money[/I]. The main ones that do - and not all of them make a whole lot - are the P5 programs. And, of course, the programs at Div 3 schools are a substantial burden on the institutions involved. The TV revenues are all that keep most programs afloat. Now, think about this from the standpoint of most schools with football programs. Remember that they now have their financial backs to the wall and every extra expense is a burden. Then give them an excuse for deep sixing their athletic programs for a year: the virus. What would you choose? And, yes, I know that many programs at the bigger schools are essentially independent corporations that are allied with the schools involved. But those corporations - or associations, if you please - can't run their programs without cooperation from the schools. I am increasingly of the opinion that they won't get it. [/QUOTE]
