(12-23-2016 12:18 PM)Wilkie01 Wrote:  03-phew Currently, the only college football divisions are FBS (Division I-A), FCS (Division I-AA), Division II.,and Division III. Both The P5 and The G5 are in the FBS (Division I-A). So are you suggesting The G5 form a new Division? Wouldn't this make your teams be even less than the P5? Just sayin'. 07-coffee3

Wilkie, you are correct on an "official" level, but the issue isn't "should the g5 form a new division?" They have already been segregated into a new division, and as time goes on the "g" teams will become increasingly less competitive with the "Power" conference teams.

Seriously... At it's CLOSEST point, the disparity between the "Power" conferences and the "g" conferences is 4X in terms of money. At it's more typical margin, it's close to 10X the amount of $$$ coming to each Power conference team vs. the amount coming into a "g" conference team.

Let me throw this out there as an example. WVU just re-signed their DC to a contract that, before incentives, is around $1 Million a season. That's for a Defensive Coordinator. And that's going to be a lower amount as time goes on. $1 Million/year is a rough analog for what the average "g" conference team can afford for their HEAD COACH. How in the hell are "g" teams supposed to be able to retain quality coaches and coordinators when they cannot afford to pay them for salaries that coordinators are going to make in the "Power" conferences?

Yeah, I get it... There's only the "D1- FBS and D1-FCS" as official "divisions." But that's not what has happened in reality. And it's not the "g" conferences that wanted it this way.

RE: G5 national champion vs p5 national champion
How many times do we have to keep having the same discussion ? There is no reason to even entertain that type of playoff if you want to remain FBS. Any program that agrees to this has resigned themselves to FCS. This is why eventually the best teams from the MW will join the AAC. If you can not afford to pay for coaching and facilities to compete you will be done. This has been the end game all along for TV. You have to be able to draw eyes to stay. It's cold but that is the fact. It's the same reason UCONN Kentucky title game wasted the Villanova North Carolina game. You have to draw tv audience .Last years game was tight all the way through, yet fewer people watched. We need to be paying attention to the metric that matters . Who is getting excited to see WKU and WMU play for a g5 championship ?

The top of the G5 has looked pretty pedestrian so far. It would be a joke game 80% of the time... Somewhat competitive 15% of the time. The other 5% where they had a chance to win isn't enough.
