That's just what it's going to take to keep up with the Jones'

"What are we talking about ... 50 teams that will be able to compete?" said Jason Montgomery, a veteran sports law attorney at Husch Blackwell.
It's been inevitable for years. Revenue sharing is just the next step after NIL. And some fools argued NIL would bring parity. Nope. Just the rich getting richer. I have no problem with that being that we are one of the rich teams. But 50 teams is about right. I doubt you can list 50 teams that truly belong in "Div I". I'll spot you the entire SEC and BIG *. That's 34. Maybe 5 from ACC + ND gets you to 40.
I've always thought four, 12-team conferences would be perfect but dividing them up geographically would be difficult. But then I'd also go back to an 11-game regular season and the four conference champs in a playoff. (nice and tidy for my OCD).
