And in many cases you'll get a story about poker chips. It's an "untraceable" way to get $$$ in the hands of recruits and their families.

Been going on for ages.

Knew not to trust his so called attempt to make up.

1/3? Like 20 of them? That would not make sense. I think the bare minimum is 32.

I have no idea what the number would end up being, but I think this is probably

Once they make themselves look more and more professional, they will...

Yeah.... no. Taking your ball and playing in your own division is not an anti trust case. Taking steps to make yourself

Then why does MLB need an antitrust exemption?

Even though your actions limit competition?

No.

I think that is overly simplistic.

They already pay NFL level salaries to many of their football coaches What's

in light of what we saw at the beginning of the season in the PAC 10 +2....

As G5 programs become more competitive, things like this get closer to reality

Except G5 programs are not becoming more competitive with P5 programs

CrimsonCardinal

Agreed.

This year Cincinnati, BYU, and likely CCU could all defeat any team in the PAC10

There are a handful of P5 teams that are above and beyond the rest are on par wi

If the G5 and FCS teams refuse to play them, how many bowl games will they be

When-- not if-- this happens, BYU will be included.

All-American

12/4/20 7:37am

I would love your thoughts on your comment above. Why will they be included?

Cougstreak

12/4/20 7:55am

Because they will want to include BYU. (Possibly because they would have to.)

All-American

12/4/20 8:14am

Good points.

I am neglecting the non-football aspects, true-- I don't think they would matter

All-American

12/4/20 8:42am

Wouldn't this be an exclusive league/conference/athletic organization....

Cougstreak

I don't think so.

You are one of the few voices of reason on here. I totally agree.

If they break into their own group with half of current P5s, there will be more

Not sure why the sads. This is a small step in the right direction. In case

Mitty

I think it sounds great. I truly believe that when this split happens BYU is in.

All-American

That's fine with me as along as it's still amateur college sports, and there's
