In other words, SEC and B1G told the little monkeys to get in line or have their heads cut off.

Don't we want to be a little monkey? Are we a tiny monkey?

Sea monkey?

Used to love those things.

(Of course, these days there would probably be some disclaimer like "Image is not actual representation. Does not contain actual Simian life."

Since the B10 and the SEC now have a stranglehold on the CFP with the B12 and the ACC relegated to minor players, perhaps the importance of basketball will be on the upswing.

Having the screws tightened on both conferences may help us. Seems like this summer may get interesting.

I think it’s clear that he is acting in his conference’s best interest. Go along to get along.

lol if he did what was best for the Big12 and voted against the Sec and Big. There wouldn’t be a Big12 allowed in the playoff.

I don't buy that. The Big 12 and ACC could have showed some backbone and the G6 probably would have followed. This makes the ACC and Big 12 more like G conferences. Let the P2 split off already.

With college sports in limbo and key issues coming to a head, the spotlight is on the SEC: 'It's going to get heated'

With potential CFP format changes, athlete revenue sharing and the impending House ruling all in flux, college sports is at a critical juncture. And the SEC is at the forefront of it all this week in Florida.

Worth the read. Outlines the potential football split by the power conferences. Looks like it could be over.

I read the article. As for the question of ‘is college sports worth saving’, the answer appears to be yes, but only Football and Basketball for the most part. Honestly, why not just follow pro sports at this point. I have only so much viewing time anyway.

How the heck can Rutgers be running up a $70 million deficits if they make $61.5 million in conference distributions annually? Note that that $70 million deficit is after an annual school contribution of $28.6 million. So somehow their athletic program is $98.6 million in the hole, after getting $61.5 million a year in conference distributions alone, never mind, ticket, sales, sale of merchandising, rights, etc.

NJSU is the rich kid who not only does zero with his head start, but manages to blow every opportunity handed to him, other than the associates degree he purchased from the nearby community college. found this courtesy of an orange rutgers dumpster fire thread
