Why can't the bottom 3 P-5 conferences & G-5...


conferences join together and have the NCAA place a cap on athletic spending (revenue). Professional leagues do it or have done it. Let's say Alabama makes $200 million each year but the NCAA says they can only spend $125 million on athletics and the other $75 million has to go to academics (not related to athletics). What is the NCAA's mission statement? Does the NCAA believe in a level playing field? Does the NCAA want to avoid monopolies? Equity is a popular term thrown around these days. How about equity? Alabama can build nicer libraries, better classrooms and labs, nicer dorms or use the extra revenue for academic scholarships for students who aren't part of any athletic program sponsored by the NCAA. I don't know how the NCAA votes. Is it by majority vote or does every school have to agree? If it is by a majority vote, then let everyone gang up on the B1G and SEC. If the B1G and SEC don't like it, they can leave. I doubt most B1G schools would want to be aligned with the SEC. It also gives the SEC bad public relations if they appear to favor athletics over education. The B1G wouldn't want to get caught up in that PR mess since they pride themselves as a great academics conference.
