FCS may be eliminated but the big 5 forming their own will never happen. If my school, by definition, meets all the same requirements and you refuse to play me you will likely meet my attorney. Changing the requirements would bring too much resistance from the bottom of the big five. It'll never happen.

Meet your attorney concerning what? Sure wouldn't be about refusing to play your school.

Again if the university "meets all requirements" this has class action law suite written all over it. I'm not an attorney but if the decision is to consolidate certain public universities for the purposes of financial gain that harms other public universities, particularly within the same system, we have a problem. Requirements have been put in place to level the playing field but also provide a fair bench mark for those who wish to participate. Requirements would have to change and here lies the problem. What could be changed and if the change is made what would be the implications for an already tight schedule. Just speculating but making this sort of change would likely meet quite a bit of resistance from a political standpoint as well.

Do not believe you would have a case at all. Many people have said things of this nature on posts with attorney's coming along and commenting on them and it seems that there is no recourse. But I'm not an attorney and didn't even stay at a Holiday Inn last night.
