Here's what should happen if anyone had any integrity:
the D1 presidents would say, "Cut the crap.   We'll give you cost of attendance but the res t of it is BS.  And we don't believe your bluster about breaking away because it doesn't work for you.  if you break away, no more NCAA tournaments...for anyone because you're no longer members.  So Duke, UNC, Kansas, UCLA we wish you well in the Top12 or whatever you choose to call you basketball tourney.  BC, might's well petition to join the Big for hockey, because that's where you're going to have to play.  How many folks are going to go to see you play Penn State for the 5th or 6th time do you think?  South Carolina, maybe you can work a deal to play half your baseball schedule against the South Atlantic league...then again,maybe not..."  Call their bluff but make it clear that if they leave the NCAA for football, they are out for everything else, too.  My guess, though is that most of the presidents are of the opinion that they are best to be rid of the big football schools, so if they want their own rules, fine.  Just don't keep bothering us.
