What's the work around for Title IX? What do you do with a UTexas athletic budget vs a UT San Antonio? There will be fewer than 10 schools dominating in all sports within the next few years.


Major college football will be 20-35 teams that can pay. They already have an annual spend cap per the agreement.

Football players will transition to employees to get around Title IX, which as far as I can tell doesn't address direct payment anyway.

It'll all sort out and we'll be watching minor league football with a school's mascot attached.

Fans will lose interest and the whole thing will implode and the NFL will migrate it all to a real minor league (which ironically would have fixed all these problems decades ago)

Why would the NFL want to put its hands on this mess? They already have a free “minor league” system as it is.
