Very good point, one that is probably being underestimated. Right or wrong, I bet you a nickel the the NCAA will have to buckle to some extent on this.

The only thing that I observer is that when big shakeups and changes happen in the collegiate athletic structure, it pays to be a program that is hitting on all cylinders at that time. At least you have a chance to have some options. The last time a big shakeup happened we were in the DePaulo/Merthens era and the world left us behind to an extent.

Man, I really hope that Coach McGrath can make things work going forward....I have an idea that we are entering a phase where we need to be getting it done.
