Conference Expansion: Stanford, California and SMU Join the ACC

This isn’t true. The Big East was a power conference. UConn is hanging out alone in Storrs. USF still isn’t in a power conference. Cincy just got back to one.
USF joined the Big East with Cincinnati. USF and Cincinnati played each other in football every year since 2003.
 
Where would the money come from for a revenue sharing plan that doesn't impact TV revenue?

OK. If you want to count the Big East as Power Football conference.

That was the play behind Big East expansion in the early 2000's. UConn was stuck in a conference with no football once BC and VT and Miami left, so the league started grabbing schools left and right to try and get a football presence and eventually the original Big East schools, eg. Georgetown, Villanova, Providence, etc. got pissed and left to recreate the original Basketball focused league and sued to retain the Big East name.

I think he means that TV revenue to the conference would not change; it would just be shared in different portions amongst members based on on-field success.

So some schools will make less money.

We haven't seen the numbers from 21-22 just yet, but there was apparently a "sizeable" increase from 20-21 where they ND TV rights + money from the Orange Bowl being a non-playoff game that year. They lost about 10% of their revenue from that year and seem to be grabbing more money because of ACCN hitting full distribution. Think the idea is that's going to continue to increase with another full year of distribution and how that contract is structured, believe it's more backloaded.

There's about another $200M+ that they get from Bowls, the NCAA in general, and the NCAAT. That more than likely is the revenue that's going to be shared differently, which makes sense to influence people to actually not be completely dog shit. Perform well: you get more money. The more people that perform well, the more money there is in general.

What’s going to happen is the power 2 conferences is going to breakaway and be a glorified g league no one watches but their fan bases while the rest of the universities fall back into what made the NCAA great. I hope that when that happens the leftovers refuse to play them in football and shut them out as not being legit college athletics in other sports tell them have their own bball, soccer and golf championships etc…..

What is the likely and could this even happen?
 
So if all goes well, when the SEC schools are making $100 million apiece in 2028, we'll be close to $60 million because we had a good season.

College football and basketball won't be great without the SEC and B1G.

Who cares? There are a limited number of players and coaches available. Our facilities will still be sweet. Our other sports will still be good.

That's the thing. It's better when everyone is playing. Watching. tOSU play UGA or Bama every year for the Big 10/SEC title will be pretty fucking boring. As will a knock-off basketball tournament with Kentucky and every Big 10 team finding a way to lose. Lost in the money grab is that by shrinking the pool, the game gets less interesting. Enjoy playing the Big 10 in perpetuity.
