Yep this is a good fit - I’m still at a loss for what college athletics are gonna look like 5-7 years from now
Not as bad as what the doomsayers think, but also not going back to the idealistic institution we'd like it to be. FBS, at least at the highest levels, will obviously be more about money and the playoff will be expanded. I am not sure what the lower levels will be like, still not sure if there is a split or if the playoff will just be expanded out to 12 or 16. I know one thing, money and 'exams' are no object anymore, as far as preventing more games. It definitely will resemble more of an NFL minor league feel. The GREAT thing about football is, it's still a physical game, and you have to play the game on the field. So the hungry guy playing at MSU from Tallahatchie county, gets to square off against a 8M NIL guy at Tennessee. I am REALLY curious to see how NIL/taxes affect these guys, I mean quick money didn't work out well for Doc and Darryl (just watched that 30 for 30 last night).
Basketball and baseball will likely remain unchanged, except for the ability to transfer. And I do think that dies down a good bit as post-COVID rosters normalize, and guys figure out that a quick transfer isn't always for the best.
