The P2 are going to break away from the NCAA governing body

HtownHokie • 01/06/26 08:53 PM ET
The ACC will not look the same, neither will the B12 nor the P2
VTCALS72 • 01/06/26 12:13 PM ET
No. They (B10 and SEC) would be very dumb to do that.
AirborneHokie96 • 01/06/26 11:55 AM ET
We already basically have the B10 + SEC playoffs and they whine because

Coaches and schools need to agree to shift the calendar. They won't.**

It’s all going to implode. Enjoy it while we have it

Will enjoy it much more after it implodes and hopefully reason and common

Only get bigger... private equity will replace the wobbly donor model...
Techsupport • 01/06/26 10:31 AM ET
Then it will get really ugly. You’ll have private

Like Boosters?**
AirborneHokie96 • 01/06/26 11:56 AM ET
Exactly.**

It seems to me that PE is not a year after year cash inflow
VTCALS72 • 01/06/26 10:41 AM ET
Exactly, on the returns it will want/expect
VTJay • 01/06/26 11:35 AM ET
Just drop the C from NCAA.**
likehokies • 01/06/26 09:30 AM ET
Probably makes cents to go from being called the National Collegiate
VTHokie2000 • 01/06/26 10:25 AM ET
How about NPAA
EDGEMAN • 01/06/26 10:27 AM ET
NNEPU
TomTurkey • 01/06/26 12:30 PM ET
FWIW NPAA is currently being used by the National Professional Anglers
VTHokie2000 • 01/06/26 10:36 AM ET
So it's available...lol**
EDGEMAN • 01/06/26 10:39 AM ET
Yes, I believe the name is available. From a branding perspective though
VTHokie2000 • 01/06/26 10:47 AM ET
Doesn't one of the As stand for amatuer
crazylane • 01/06/26 10:00 AM ET
Break the NCAA monopoly, yes drop the C.

1947Sunbowl • 01/06/26 09:26 AM ET
Exactly - they are saying if you don’t bring 250 mil to the table
uber hokie • 01/06/26 01:37 PM ET
Correct**
AirborneHokie96 • 01/06/26 11:14 AM ET
Need to reduce roster sizes IMO
V333T • 01/06/26 09:23 AM ET
I believe roster size will be corrected by the market...
Techsupport • 01/06/26 10:39 AM ET
Free market in the NCAA?

Isn't the advantage the P2s have in the media contracts giving them an

What will motivate a Conference like the B10 to flinch?**
AirborneHokie96 • 01/06/26 11:13 AM ET
They want a bigger slice of the money. Instead of splitting the money pie
VTHokie2000 • 01/06/26 11:36 AM ET
In 10 years, their slice has grown from $35M per school to $70M per school

Separate media‑company incentives from conference incentives and structural
AirborneHokie96 • 01/06/26 01:21 PM ET
