Too much ego for the SEC and the B10 to form the P1 in my view in 5 years.

But I see much closer cooperation between the P2 conferences for the next five or six years. As for Vanderbilt and Northwestern, the big question is whether the P2 will adopt the pro model, under which players would be considered employees and wouldn’t need to take classes. If that happens, Vanderbilt and/or Northwestern might voluntarily leave the P2 and join a conference that sticks to the traditional NCAA model. Other weaker programs, such as Rutgers and Mississippi State, would stay with (much) reduced payouts for as long as they can. I don’t see them being kicked out within five or six years.

It looks like that is per window, not per game. Still very strong.

IMHO VT’s chance is slim at best.

Thanks for the answer, but that’s a different question, what’s your answer
Stech 03/29/25 06:35 PM ET

VTCALS72 03/29/25 04:13 PM ET
