I find it fairly humorous if they put student in the name when you know good and well that being a student will be the last thing on the mind of 95% of these players

Hey if there is a real relegation system, I could get behind it. 

Agree, but it clearly says "without relegation".  Not sure how promotion without relegation works.

A similar 2-league proposal was leaked to the public this past spring and it resembles what is being proposed for the College Student Football League. I've attached the pdf deck if anyone's interested. It calls for a Super League (SL) of 70 permeant schools and an Under League (UL) of 66 schools that would be subject to promotion and relegation based upon performance. If you just want the bullet points, see the attached screen grabs. 

Personally I think a system like this makes a lot of sense and halts the Big10/SEC breakaway. Not surprisingly, the Big10 and SEC came out against this proposal when it hit the streets last February. 

And here come the downvotes and puking eagles in 3...2...1...

When the top schools manage to dump the Vandys and Rutgers of their leagues, and split off, how long until those fans get tired of 6-6 records and quit watching?

Bullies can only exist because victims exist.

LOL, did you see half of those "schools" in the Power 12 league?  What a fkin joke.  No way that is serious.

No doubt this faces an uphill battle but the proposal takes the majority of schools from the previous Power 5 and reorganizes them into 12 divisions to prevent the SEC & Big10 from creating a 32 team super league.

Then it creates the Group of 8 (out of the G5 schools) with 8 division | 8 teams per division, which would have the opportunity for promotion/relegation to the top league, depending on performance.

I think it's a smart idea. The proposal also adds an additional game to the college football season and increases the CFP to 24 teams for more opportunity.

The SEC commissioner already said they aren't going backwards, which the B1G completely agrees with, too.

I think the reality is that these two will pick apart the pieces of the ACC and Big 12 that are worth something to them and they will abandon the NCAA. Best thing that could ever happen, too.

Why the down votes?  This spreads top football (and money and competitiveness) out beyond just SEC and B10, and adds a promotion pathway for everyone to move up.  It's 1000x better than where we are currently heading.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I am torn on what to do with EM, but I know he needs to go. Many say we need a HC with head coaching experience at the FBS level. I know there are HCs at other FBS programs doing more with less, but would they come to a place where historically it's difficult to win consistently and risk it all if their eye is ultimately on a power conference job? Then if you take a P4 conference former HC, they have most likely been fired and they may not get the mojo back like Tom Herman at FAU or Charlie Strong. So, if that is the case where do we go? Many are saying no FCS HC or no more coordinators who have not been a HC at this level. Again where do we go if not those type of guys? My thought is that you may have to hire that guy that this board has been reluctant to go after. That's the guys who have had issues somewhere else and that's why they are no longer where they are. Lane Kiffin had issues and FAU gave him the chance to resurrect his career. Alabama gave Sarkisian (spelling) a chance to resurrect his career and he is doing good things at Texas. We have tried a lot of things, but we have not tried that route of HCs with some skeletons in their past. I feel that if that coach wins, people will forget about their past. I am sure people at Texas have forgotten about what went down with Sark at USC. Just my opinion because we have been striking out for a long time on HCs.

      In case you’re a Yeti collector

      YETI has a collegiate collection. I didn't get a chance to snag one of the above, so I'm hoping that UNT will become available on their website. Eventually?

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I'm not sure what the path is for Cobbs long term. A lot of us would absolutely love to have him in a HC role in Denton, but we want to see him gain HC experience first. Do we take a chance and give him that crown? Do we watch him leave, and possibly not return...ever?
