Would you have made this thread if you had ties to Bloomington instead of Lincoln?
I'm sorry that Nebraska hasnt caught a break because it would be fun to see them relevant again.

NIL is not the problem. Also, the solution is ridiculously easy to fix. Reinstate the traditional transfer rules and do away with waivers.
Give athlete 6 years to play 4.
1 redshirt year
1 transfer year, athletes are ineligible to play on the transfer year but doesn’t lose the year for eligibility.
So if schools want to tamper and poach a player, that’s fine, said player will sit for a year and get NIL money with zero production.
This would slow down the roster poaching, protect players as well as programs from rebuilding every season.

Until a federal court strikes down any rules or restrictions that are put into place.

This right here.
Pandora's box is opened and the federal courts have shown time and time again that they are going to side with the athletes against the NCAA. It'll take more than an adjustment of the transfer rules to end this anarchy.

Let's be honest. College football is a Southern and Midwest sport. The rest of the country could care less about it. They definitely don't have the same passion for it as the South and Midwest.
They should quit dragging their feet and just make the Big Ten/SEC Superconference. That they've been talking about for well over a decade.

Never
Im not sure why anyone doesnt like the playoffs
The old bowl system was terrible
They dont need a 2 week gap for the final and need to expand playoffs to 24 teams

There are definitely problems to fix (contracts, the ridiculous layoffs between playoff games, etc) but I do like how it seems to be trending towards more parity now. I hated seeing the same handful of teams hoard all the talent on their two-deeps every year.

And that's not happening is it? In fact the ratings are getting better not worse.

What about Miami? FSU? Clemson? UNC? Virginia? Virginia Tech? Texas Tech? TCU? SMU? Kansas State? Stanford? Notre Dame?
Do away with the conferences, pick 60 or so teams, and created the CFL — the College Football League
The leftovers (ie “Notre Dame’s Schedule”) can form its own league or go play with North Dakota State, Montana, Delaware, Mount Union and the like

Exactly. That was getting boring
Then you have the Bahamas bowl. What a total waste

All the donors trying to buy a Championship are going to start getting pissed off.

I used to spend almost every Saturday when i was off from work watching football from 11am to whenever the late games ended, this year was the first year where a lot of that changed. My interest just isn't there and its not because the Huskers suck, they've been irrelevant for 20+ years now, its just because so much of CFB is dead to me at this point and im really starting to hate what its becoming.
This is a fallacy. The reality is that CFB viewership right now is higher than it’s ever been. Just because you aren’t interested doesn’t mean the masses aren’t.

YouTube - “you’ll never look at CFB the same”
Simple video with things we all know. But interesting to think about the big teams shutting out the smaller schools in the future.

All of your complaints are legit but something tells me you’d feel a little different if Nebraska had been relevant even just once in the past two decades

High schools dropping the sport because of medical/legal/insurance reasons may choke off the supply of players.

I think the bitching is loud enough from fans, coaches, and some media personalities that it will eventually cause change. All they have to do is implement some kind of transfer restrictions (e.g. you get one move and that’s it) and it fixes a whole lot.
My big concern is that they’ll just keep expanding the playoffs, which will also completely ruin the sport. They’ll go “the cutoff was hard to judge this year so we should expand” ad infinitum until we have a 68 team playoff that lasts until March.

Been hearing NIL isn't 'sustainable' for almost 5 years now yet NIL valuations keep increasing.

The more appropriate question may be when will all of the "Olympic Sports" in college collapse. Most of their money came from football. With it all going back into football now, that funding is drying up.
