Just a curious question, do you think any school
would take money to leave the conference? I mean, many schools are going through the process of whether or not they want to compete by playing players, and whether they will get left behind anyway.
What if, for example, Wake forest decided to jettison football, and join the Big East? Duke? BC?
I'm not saying it could realistically happen, but next year it will cost $149M to exit the conference. What if the conference paid said school $75M++ to leave the conference, and move down to FCS in football?

Idea has my vote, as long as there is no football merger too.**
