P1 is the future
I think the new division will attract the 40 top FB programs in the US. It is conceivable that the all join this new division and play football only in this division and the split the $$$. They remain in their current conferences for all other sports. So, top tire is added for football TV. The conferences then negotiate the TV deals for their Tier 2 schools in the same way they do today.
