Here's where I think this is all going:

Full professional franshise model - Probably 40 programs and they will compete based attracting talent with money.  This will have nothing whatsoever to do with academics.  It will be win at all costs.  It will not be sustainable without some kind of labor agreement.  It will be an alternative to the NFL and probably the NBA.

College athletics with compensation - Athletes get paid, but it's controlled in some manner to assure a more level playing field and to assure that athletic department budgets are not stressed.  This is probably the BCS football programs less the 40 from above for football.  Probably most of the division 1 hoop programs less the 40 from above.

True aumature - Kids are at school to get and education and enjoy the athletics of their choosing.  Eveyone else not referenced above.

We'll see........I don't see this going particularly well.  God knows so far it's been a disaster.
