I believe that we're rapidly heading to an era of super conferences for both football and basketball. They may be organized under a single media deal for both sports or under separate deals with differing membership for each. Basketball likely having more member programs than football. The remainder of non-revenue sports will likely realign into more sensible regional conferences. They may still be overseen by a diminished NCAA, as these programs will more resemble the original student athlete model that The NCAA was tasked with managing. If we're being honest there really is no good reason for a Women's Volleyball or Men's Swimming Team to be flying cross country to compete. Conference realignment made that a thing. There are often multiple programs within a 3–6-hour bus ride to where most schools are located. These schools need to be competing against each other. [/QUOTE]
