Football'S long term viability
I think college football is in for a dramatic overhaul in the next 7-10 years. I truly believe those in the P5 (or maybe P4 X 16) will be the only scholarship teams. A combination of the P5 cutting out all the other schools, the rising costs to field a college football team, and the unfolding head injury reports will drive most of the schools not in the P5 to defund scholarship football.
There will be new opportunities to band with teams from AAC, A-10, conference USA, MVC, and Mountain West. The driver will be basketball.
