    I’m an Iowa fan and this is one time I can agree with you. Yes, the Big Ten schools will benefit hugely financially, but for college football as a whole it is bad. You are so right about this being all about money. College football will be separated between the haves and have nots. Not only will there be a lesser chance of schools outside the Big Ten and SEC competing with schools from those two conferences, but long time rivalries will be lost.

    Excellent, excellent video. It used to be illegal to monopolize because it destroyed small business which is essential for an economy to flourish and the people to survive. This mirrors that. There's hardly any regulations on this and if they limit transferring and a player signs a four year contract, doesn't start and decides to sue the coach and school, how is that beneficial for the sport?

      I think they are well on the way to turning college football into some kind of a minor league for the NFL and other professional leagues. It would really be interesting to know for sure what some of these players are getting paid in nil money. In some cases it could be way more than what they would make playing professional football in any League because they may not be good enough to make those leagues. Especially the NFL. What I hate to see is a bunch of kids chasing money and after years in the college system and an opportunity to get a very good education they end up with nothing to show for what they were given.

    I haven't been paying attention...but wow! Let's be honest, the sec has been operating like an NFL farm team for years and this is the other conferences just equalizing things which is why Saban was whining.
    I disagree with this being a bad thing, it's just a natural progression of sports entertainment. The David vs Goliath gets to play out when they adopt the playoff system where a Boise state gets its shot at a big.
    It was time cause everyone was sick of the sec starting every year with a huge advantage and anything that Bama hates...I love. 😅

    At some point, the " have nots" (Those not in SEC and BIG )will join together and exert political pressure against the two conferences to reestablish an equal playing field for every university. The majority of fans are against the current direction, and I would think would have widespread appeal
    in many many states.

    In terms of money and alums in Cali and recruiting I agree this is a win for Nebraska. “Calabraska” is back😂 but yeah my biggest takeaway from this news yesterday was that college sports is officially dead as we once knew it. It started to die with Texas wanting their own tv rights when we left the Big 12 but after yesterday it’s officially dead. Schools like Okie State, Miami, clemson, Oregon, Florida State can still find their way into these super conferences one way or another but a school like Kansas State has probably very little shot or what if the Big Ten looks around and says we could take in Clemson, Oregon, Stanford and Miami and sorry Maryland you’re now out. Not to mention how in the current set up how much travel the non football sports will have to do in these coast to coast conferences. I personally came away from all of this yesterday less excited for college sports and college football than I ever have been because what college football built itself on to become the giant it is that’s all dead and gone now. The only true winners of all of this are the historic Big Ten and SEC schools that are going to get all the money and still get to play the teams they historically have always played and their fan bases care the most about

    Jon here is another way to look at it. The SEC hung the Gonads of the Herd Bulls of the Big 12 on their rearview mirror and now the Big 10 just hung the Gonads of the Herd Bulls of the Pac 12 on their rearview mirror. Neither of these two Herds will survive as we know it today. Either the Big 12 will be joined by a number of Pac 12 teams to make a 16 Team Conference or the other way around. We are headed for 4 conferences with 16 teams each. The ACC will now also start to strength their herd. It will end up with 64 teams and everyone else will be playing in the intramural league.

What will become of them now? How would you like to be in one of those conferences. The Pac 10 and big 12 just got made irrelevant basically. We'll have teh NFC and AFC light. College football was set up so the players would NOT get paid. We no longer have ametuer (why is that word not in spell check?) athletics anymore and that is a shame. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. All because of the selfish SEC who started all this. All because the tremendous amounts of money weren't enough. How about 4 reginal conferences and everyone makes the same. It is no longer a level playing field. Nebraska was successful for so long because we had to innovate and create our own advantages. Now we'll have 2 better teams to beat to get anywhere and there won't even be divisions.

    If this shakes out the way It will seem to, its probably a net plus for Nebraska football. I think the B1G takes all the AAU Pack 12 schools. That would bing the B1G to 23. Add Notre Dame and it becomes and even 24. Then you can have a B1G East and West. Nebraska, Iowa, and Minnesota would have to go West to balance. That would be great news for Nebraska I think. And the road games, while requiring a flight most of the time, you end up in places like LA, San Francisco, Eugene and Seattle. Way better than Pisstheotherway, NJ for example.

    Sure, this Super-Conference thing is gonna have some negative ramifications, particularly for smaller programs, but I equate our sense of loss to dating a really fun nut-job for wayyyyyy too long. You come to enjoy the fun stuff and even some of the madness, but you KNOW that it isn't good for either of you, and has no chance of long-term success. When the wheels finally come off, certainly you feel loss, and you're gonna miss the fun-stuff, but ya shoulda never been there in the first place.
    The amateur, student-athlete model was flawed from the moment that it was conceived, and EVERYBODY knew it. We all told the same cover stories, but we knew that it simply could not last. We got addicted to the benefits that the corrupt system provided. We lauded our team for working the angles of the rules (partial-qualifiers, non-qualifiers, PED's in the 80's (cough), etc.) then we felt short-changed when the conference or NCAA intervened.
    Yeah, there are ways that this is gonna suck for a lot of folks, but ripping off the band-aid was always gonna smart a little bit, and delaying the inevitable probably made it even more painful.
