Think there will eventually be P3 or P4, then like G7.AppWyo wrote: ↑Mon Jul 21, 2025 4:56 pmThe American tried to be P6, but ended up being G6.hapapp wrote: ↑Mon Jul 21, 2025 1:56 pmhttps://x.com/Brett_McMurphy/status/1947358520661196985

What will happen eventually is that these super conferences will all fall apart like they always have. They just get too big to manage or one group thinks they can make more money in a smaller conference. Look at who were once in the SoCon. Basically, the ACC, SEC and four teams in the SBC.NattyBumppo'sRevenge wrote: ↑Mon Jul 21, 2025 6:33 pmThink there will eventually be P3 or P4, then like G7.AppWyo wrote: ↑Mon Jul 21, 2025 4:56 pmThe American tried to be P6, but ended up being G6.hapapp wrote: ↑Mon Jul 21, 2025 1:56 pmhttps://x.com/Brett_McMurphy/status/1947358520661196985

I agree. Sort of like when you do not own a pool, beach house, boat, lake house, mountain house, box seats, yacht, or member ship at the country club, but your friends do and occasionally invite you over to come along. All the SBC really needs is a way to get in the CFP and we will be sitting pretty...ah59396 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 21, 2025 7:25 pmMy two takeaways:
1. I feel for them. They’ve performed in athletics. 2x runner up in the NCAAB tournament. Played in NY6 bowls. Put some legit dudes in the pros. Reasonably large tv market. THROWING a money at a “barely P4” conference, yet stuck surrounded by a bunch of never-will-be’s. Watched almost all of their conference buddies graduate to greener pastures. Gotta suck.
2. Kinda cements my position on where we can go. I’m a big believer in “knowing who you are”. Doesn’t mean we can’t dream. But if Memphis can’t break through the ceiling given what they’ve done and the money they offered, I think it’s fair to say we need to be happy and build in the Sun Belt. Something I’m in favor of.
There might be a P2 or even one mega league. At some point schools like UGA, Alabama, etc are going to look around and wonder why they are sharing revenue with Miss State, Kentucky, etc when they don't draw nearly what the elites do. Same will happen in the Big Ten. They will decide there is no reason to share with Purdue, Rutgers, etc.NattyBumppo'sRevenge wrote: ↑Mon Jul 21, 2025 6:33 pmThink there will eventually be P3 or P4, then like G7.AppWyo wrote: ↑Mon Jul 21, 2025 4:56 pmThe American tried to be P6, but ended up being G6.hapapp wrote: ↑Mon Jul 21, 2025 1:56 pmhttps://x.com/Brett_McMurphy/status/1947358520661196985

Funny how the American is trying to rebrand itself the SBC.
