None of us did.
Like @PurpleBaze, I almost got sucked back in to this nonsense by DeBoer & Co. I'm a fool.

realistically the BIG10, SEC, and leftovers will merge into their own super league of 16-24 teams in the next 10 years and that will be that for the rest of college sports and the NCAA. A super league, separate from the NCAA, will be able to create rules that "protect" the schools and reestablish some sort of rule of law because they will have 90% of the TV money.
North:
Michigan
tOSU
PSU
Wisconsin
USC
Oregon
ND
UCLA
UW
Nebraska
South:
Florida
Georgia
Tennessee
Alabama
LSU
TAMU
UT
Oklahoma
FSU
Clemson

Players need to sign contracts with schools or collectives stipulating requirements to play in bowls, etc., or lose money, face fines.
One player transfer only, eligible after 2 years in a program. Unless grad transfer.
Players cannot follow coach to new school if hired away.
Players will have to have some kind of collective bargaining in order to negotiate nationwide contract structures, rules etc.
Money will have to be shared in TV deals with players.
Perhaps networks and schools will have to create some sort of corporation that the players bargain with.
Coaches need to pay fines if they leave during certain periods of the season, former players get a chunk of his new contract, etc.

Agreed. I think the conferences negotiate the TV contracts and therefore should pay the players the same rate across schools. NILs would be separate. I do think you can then enforce a single transfer rule.
EDIT - The commitment has to be bilateral, meaning scholarships are currently 1 year contracts which is BS because players can have them pulled (pre-portal this was egregious as the players had few options); new world, schools commit to 3 years??? while players get paid.

A lot of this has been talked about for years and much of this will absolutely happen.
Once you get into revenue sharing with players, bargaining units will be created.

This board has a surprising lack of confidence when times are tough. Nut up people.
Isn’t that the boreds MO?
Speaking of confidence, fudgies going all in on fishey. His last 24hrs of twitter has been a bi-polar roller coaster.
States we could be better next year than this year. Sorry, fudgie, couldn’t let that one slide.

1000% correct. I've said many times we're going to have another re-alignment. This makes sense.
@phineas - sounds like you have doubts. Who do you think would take UW's place?
Oh fuck, the pike place fish throwing is going to take on a whole new level of gay with the fish puns and jokes based on our new fishey.
Players just need to form a union to collectively bargain. Once that happens you can put some barriers in place to try and preserve the sport.

That's fair, but you'll have to agree there's some "once bitten, twice shy" goin' on here.
Eligible high school recruits will enter for a “draft” that takes place in the spring of their senior year. Order will be determined by the record and ranking achieved by the football program in the previous season, with lower performing teams earning higher draft position.

I actually don't think this will happen. I think they will be student employees who have to freely choose a university and can only be paid if they are a full time student. Just like a normal undergrad campus employee.
I don't think the official enrolled student aspect will ever be gone.
