Realignment Carousel Spins Up again (USC and UCLA to Big 10)

[Shockm]

The top 20 talent level of the NCAA isn’t even close to the NFL talent level if you know what you’re watching. Obviously Cold knows nothing about top level football players. It’s really not close.

[Aargh]

Oh, boy! What could be more exciting than a pi$$ing match between Cold and Stick?

Have you hit your head recently?

Just point out the parts you don't understand. I'll be happy to expound.

You aren't listening closely enough.

Nothing of the sort.

Another wall of text from you outlining your opposition to WSU football, saying almost the exact same thing you said in a post on the prior page or thread. I do believe it might be as much as 30% of your total posts on SN.

Stop being stupid. You said they compete for viewership, but not for people who know what they’re watching. The average isn’t even close. Maybe he NCAA championship competes with an NFL game, but the P4 or P5 (whatever you want to call it) doesn’t compare with the NFL in viewership and again, its not close.

Just curious what makes SMU all that attractive as an add. I’m guessing it’s just their location.

Location and academics.

They've had some decent teams and rich alumni so there may be the thought that they could become more?

Ok this whole thing was already absurd and now it just reached another level lol

Dude. I'm talking about the future. If multi-million dollar contracts become the norm at the power colleges, the quality at the highest level WILL get diluted. What's stopping Alabama from paying $5M for a quarterback? $10M?

If the NCAA truly goes away, it's Katie bar the door. It will be whatever a school can afford. And the alumni base at Ohio State, Alabama, whatever can afford anything.

Really, what I think Cold is saying is we just need the money to build a state of the art stadium, restart the program with state of the art equipment and have left over money to pay all players at WSU $2-10M/yr.

We could get the best players in the country and they would stay 5 years assuring us of being in the National Championship game each year, get us an invite to the SEC and the television money that comes from that. After that all we have to do is include the 10% pro payback to the program when they move to the NFL.

The day that DSB makes a post that doesn't drop at least 1 SEC reference will be the first.

The combined hubris of DSB, ShockRef and rjl could power a reasonably-sized city much in the same capacity as a small nuclear reactor.

See ya later SMU. Enjoy.
