But the SEC and B1G allowed them to....
The G-5 schools say the same about all the Power 5 schools. The B1G and SEC schools are sitting pretty but I wonder what percentage of their fan bases aren't happy with the direction of college athletics, mainly football and men's basketball. Many B1G and SEC fans may feel bad for those P-5 schoool left behind but they'll forget in a short time while the leftovers become even less relevant.
I remember when ECU football as pretty much equal to Tech before Tech moved to the BEFC and later to the ACC. I just hope Tech doesn't suffer the same fate as ECU, Rice, Tulane, SMU, Southern Miss, Marshall ... I still feel that Tech will be okay if the P-2 goes to 48. Not so sure about 40.

Then, reality shows killed the music video channel.

Sadly, I think a lot of good programs are going to be left out.

Like most things, the idea and benefits didn't, but the later money did**
