There's going to be even worse realignment than there is now. At that point just give us a real playoff. Fuck it.

The amateur athletics model can't survive this.

The transfer portal and recruiting alone will be a shit show.

The football programs might as well become their own entity at that point.

The ripple effect will hurt other sports because the football programs at most schools carry the ship.

The NCAA is lobbying congress to give them protections should any lawsuits come from future regulations. And they will.

They manage the funding of the entire college sports landscape. That is upwards of 20 billion dollars. They aren't trying to give any of that up and it will come back to bite them.

I'm happy for the athletes. But the NCAA is unsustainable as an organization unless they can accept letting this play out in a way where everyone wins but they're greedy fucks so they won't.
