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.

      Another NIL Coaching Casualty

      Please move if needed, posting here as it's related to NIL and is probably more applicable to football than basketball. Miami basketball head coach is resigning. The following are quotes that should be of concern to any fan but especially some of your blue blood programs. What happens when you can no longer outspend your peers so your legendary coaches leave? Saban was the most name worthy retirement but there's been plenty others and here's another big name leaving. NIL will be reeled in when the big money boosters lose their favorite coaches, no longer see the wins on their records, and see they can no longer just money-whip their way to success. From the Miami Herald: “At this point, after 53 years, I just didn’t feel that I could successfully navigate this whole new world that I was dealing with because my conversations were ridiculous with an agent saying to me, `Well, you can get involved [with a prospective player] if you’re willing to go to $1.1 million, and that would be the norm.” ... “What shocked me beyond belief was after we made the Final Four just 18 months ago, the very first time I met with the players, eight of them decided they were going to put their names in the portal and leave. “I said, `Don’t you like it here?’ They’d say, `I love Miami, it’s great.’ But the opportunity to make money someplace else created a situation that you have to begin to ask yourself, as a coach, what is this all about?’’ He added that he tried “every which way” to make things work, but “last year was a disaster”, and this year was not going well, either. He felt the new players were not buying in as transfers had in years prior." https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/college/acc/university-of-miami/article297597538.html

      Bringing in Poffenberger, signing Jimerson and Mestemaker returning, Cash probably realized he wasn’t going to get any playing time here soon. Best of luck to him.
