Is the greed from the G5 teams ruining college football?

Apparently, according to this message board thread: http://csnbbs.com/thread-719238.html

Much of the G5 is trying to destabilize CFB with possible litigation and working back channels to try to curb much needed to improve the sport. It's turning into a dirty quagmire of deceit and nastiness.

 

Some of the G5 have come out against a lot of the reforms regarding student athletes that are necessary to advance college sports as a whole. the rationale for blocking moves that only benefit student athletes and safeguard the P5 from lawsuits is that they can afford it, but the G5 can't.

that toxic attitude IMO is what will do the most damage.

 

The G5 fans are hoping to see things destabilize in the hopes that their schools get called up to backfill in a P5 conference. I think the G5 schools themselves are scrambling and jockeying to get into the P5 instead of growing their own conferences in order to create a P6 or a P7. That's the problem we see today, and instead of working to make things better we are seeing schools stabbing other schools in the back in the hope to win a sweepstakes. It's repugnant and fueled by greed. There is no consideration for their fellow institutions.
