All schools must agree on one media contract & then agree not to cheat.


Getting agreement on the former would be difficult. Getting agreement on the latter would be easy, but everyone would assume that no one intends to actually be bound by it and simply continue on with whatever they were doing.

Buy out every single available ticket to the Championship game and then don't go. They'd have fun trying to hide all the empty seats.

It's going to take a lot more than that to change this from the current trajectory. Arguably, this year's playoffs were a step in the right direction: so far, other than Ole Miss-UGA and Ole Miss-Miami, all of the games have been really lopsided. The NCAA can't have it's premier games be boring for very long, especially when they overlap with the NFL playoff race and wild card round.

If you can make enough in college, you no longer need the NFL. There's life changing money at the collegiate level, with less commitment of time and effort, and lower risk of debilitating injury. Yeah, you do lose out on extra money, but you'll still be set for life.

I have my doubts, longterm.


The new system is destroying what made college football unique. It will just be NFL (Saturday) but with marching bands.

I suspect what will happen (and may have been the goal all along) is that there will be a re-layering of the sport between the schools that have the bankroll to afford to pay players millions of dollars and those who don't. The big money schools will form/coopt a few conferences and have an expanded playoff.

The other schools will take other conferences, have a regular season with some bowl games at the end, and be where most of the player development takes place, with the top talent moving up to the big money league after 1-3 years.

People will still watch it all, but it won't have the passion that the previous version had.

Don't B-negative, B-positive!

The Stillers really like losing in the first round of the playoffs, too. 0 for the last 5, I think.
Every announced commitment everywhere needs to be in quotes until the dude actually shows up and plays.

In and of itself, that doesn't mean much. Did we get better results than them, or worse?
