Adding schools from FCS dilutes the payoff and dilutes the talent pool.

I'd say the risk bullet is more of the P5 expanding with most of the AAC teams and creating a G4.

Then the powers that be on the next contract might say the G doesn't need more representation since most of its best schools have moved up to the P level.

If it goes the other way where pressure continues on the CFP through teams challenging for the Top 25 and even more schools move up the justification for greater access exists.
