65 is too few teams to break away there are not enough teams to be at the bottom and too many teams year in and year out at the bottom perennially to tolerate that

it will have to be 80 to 96 teams

100 players on scholarship is just plain stupid there are already too many illiterate mush mouths on NCAA teams as it is they need to be CUTTING the number of players on scholarship not adding to it that is just a ridiculous idea

every team going to a bowl is a horrid idea especially since there will be so many with huge losing records

get real about the left over conferences and teams having anything to do with those that break away they will have nothing to do with the conferences and teams that break away and they will do their little playoff thing that no one will care about and then they will finally figure that out

12 conference games is a terrible idea that adds no strength to any conference and it just makes for terrible match ups year in and year out and it leaves way too many questions about who is actually good and not good before any 4 or even 8 team playoff happens.......just a TERRIBLE idea

as for the union thing it is not going to turn out how those mush mouth losers at NW and their union buffoons think it will

there is ZERO chance in hell (or anywhere else) that a university can have players unionized or even worse treated as employees

once some future felon mush mouthed buffoon is an employee the amount of risk to a university becomes MASSIVE....as an employee any mistreatment of a fellow student while on "company" property or while doing anything that remotely represents the "company" opens the "company" up to MASSIVE liability.......these new idiotic "employees" will be subjected to 100% of the employee manual than that means say something wrong to one of the "customers" (students that are not athlete "employees") that will have to be dealt with just like an employee at any business

accusations of sexual harassment that are even remotely verified will equal FIRED.....there will be no second chances for throwing your GF down the stairs (shout out to you lawarence phillips) and more than likely that will result in a MUCH BIGGER and more easily litigated lawsuit against the university......there will be no rapist on the team (shout out to you darrell williams Jamise winston).....no more shoving fans in the stands (shout out to you jamarcus not so smart) and on and on

say something rude to a maid or janitor or campus cop or security guard.......you are no longer a coddled "skrudent aflete" you are an EMPLOYEE and as an EMPLOYEE you will be subjected to 100% of the employee handbook PERIOD.......there will be ZERO ability for a university to have separate employee handbooks or treatment because some employees are "athlete employees"......to attempt to do so means many more lawsuits........fail a drug test one time FIRED just like an EMPLOYEE

and please don't pretend that universities will be rewriting their employee handbooks to allow all the stupid and foolish behaviors that athletes are allowed a pass on now for all employees

there could even be issues with dating between "employees" and students and there will SURELY be lawsuits galore (shout out to you gloria allred) from students that felt harassed or pressured by "employees"

these idiots have no idea what it will mean to be "employees" instead of students and they will get hammered and the ability to recruit some of these fools with existing criminal records (because again the EMPLOYEE HANDBOOK will not allow people with particular convictions even as minors) to be EMPLOYEES

and again more than likely this will fail either the legislatures will get involved or universities will go back to what I have been saying which is concentrating on academics and that will weed out a large portion of these "get paid" idiots to start with and even if they do become "employees" at some or all schools or any schools that will be terrible for most of those same idiots

there is no way only 65 schools split off, there is no way they ADD to players on scholarship and there is no way they allow them to become employees unless they totally screw most of these get paid fools in the process probably even including academic "employment' goals as well that equal FIRED
