It would also put P2 expansion into high gear, IMO.

It would encourage them to destroy the non-P2. If I were the P2, I would counter by putting out invites to a few more teams, saying that the split is forcing them to do so. Now they could do it right out in the open. FSU and Clemson would get formal invites, removing all doubt. The FSU and Clemson lawsuits would get new life, since this change would actually damage them. ND would sue the ACC to get out. Anyone else invited would also sue to get out, UNC, Miami, etc. Maybe the P2 decides they then need to also "fill in some gaps", so they invite Arizona, Colorado, Utah, UVa, etc. It would be a train wreck, IMO.

Every conference outside the SEC and B1G should leave them. Cut bait.

Wouldn't the P2 then start offering some of the top

If the P2 break off, isn't that the same?

Yes, and I think it's one of the reasons

And that's why I don't think a P2 breakaway is in the cards

We don't need leverage with football.
