Hey my comment more generic that the money payer, big media

wants way fewer teams, not more. I think the pro model is being looked as and the pro leagues have somewhere in the low 30s of teams. Now just logically, if 30ish NFL or MLB or NBA teams didn't have the market saturated, more would be added. But 30s is where they are and again, just my opinion but that is about all big media wants for the big leagues.

Interesting but the idea of 70 teams at the top level

One of the major points of the article was that the people that-

This guy is "Big Media." "Big Media" put the plan together.
Baltimore_Hokie • 03/07/25 12:29 PM ET
Yeah and I think anything that says 70 teams will be in the top level
VTCALS72 • 03/07/25 12:40 PM ET
The "pro model" started with 8 teams, man.
Baltimore_Hokie • 03/07/25 01:05 PM ET
70 works, if distributions are on a sliding scale

Not sure we can be competitive!

Make the last 2 GT and WVU and this would be a great football league.

I want round robin leagues back.
Maroon Baboon • 03/06/25 03:06 PM ET
I’m opposite. I find round robin to be repetitive and boring

The ACC in the FSU-domination years was an anomaly.
Maroon Baboon • 03/07/25 01:07 AM ET
ACC division schedule was the worst. Very much agree on that **
HokieAl • 03/07/25 08:13 AM ET
Truth. And then they screwed us even harder with the 3-5-5 schedule.
Maroon Baboon • 03/07/25 09:25 AM ET
and the fact that we played FSU and Clemson so few times. Just horrible**
HokieAl • 03/07/25 09:31 AM ET
Round robin 10-team divisions in 20 team leagues absolutely could happen.
hokieZ71 • 03/06/25 06:16 PM ET
If you are going to bring back the Pac-10, then why not the Pac-8?
VTHokie2000 • 03/06/25 06:14 PM ET
9 conference games better than 7. **
Maroon Baboon • 03/06/25 07:01 PM ET
7 conferences would allow for 4 OOC games + 1 neutral site OOC games.
VTHokie2000 • 03/06/25 07:11 PM ET
Ah, in antiquis diebus, when college football was the best**
Baltimore_Hokie • 03/06/25 04:55 PM ET
I think that is coming for the level of the ACC/B12 and PAC.
