See the link below. From the article:

”College athletics needs revolution, not the same incremental and ineffective evolution. Leaders should stop legislating to satisfy the complaints of the now and start envisioning what college athletics should actually look like in the next generation. Then start moving and leading toward that vision. And it's one that should involve much less of the NCAA.”

And,

”College presidents are mostly to blame for this leadership rut. They are part-time leaders of a billion-dollar organization that requires full-time engagement. They propped up outgoing NCAA president Mark Emmert for about a decade too long, with a tab that reached $4 million annually. That's outrageous even by college sports' standards.”

And,

”Any long-term strategy needs to begin with the realization that a Sheboygan Brownie Troop leader has more power than the NCAA president. Recent NCAA leadership has devolved into praying for legal or congressional intervention as strategy.”

And,

”The conferences need to take the lead. And the Power 5 leagues outside the Big Ten and SEC should be sounding the alarms in their conference offices daily to stress how much the revenue gap projections could undercut their future.

While all this NIL tail chasing is happening, the Big Ten and SEC are pulling so far away from their alleged peer power leagues so quickly that we appear poised for another seismic realignment shift soon because of the revenue gap. And the only reason people haven't seen this coming is they are distracted by nonsense.

The smart leaders who aren't in either of those two power leagues know they are soon going to be competing against schools that receive nearly double the annual revenue from their conferences. This is an unsustainable competitive model that's destined to shake up college sports much sooner and more drastically than is being discussed right now.”



Thank the man upstairs that WE. ARE. o_O in the b1g and that we have Neeli.

leaders? who are these so-called leaders?
I assumed when they were using the word "Presidents" they meant the group of the Presidents who oversee the NCAA. Since their primary job is being a president at their school, by definition they are "part time". That is the group that is supposed to act as the representatives to the member schools. In this context, I don't know who else would or even could be the leaders. the NCAA is a private non-profit who was setup to serve the member schools.

Senay has had enough of the other conferences after the playoff expansion fiasco. I predict a larger SEC an enlarged BigTen and two other conferences for the future. I also predict the SEC have their own playoff.
