What's this?

Re: Seen This Article?


Author does a good job but doesn't acknowledge the fierce politics, law-suits etc . The best economic models are not necessarily the most politically expedient.

One area he touches on that I agree with is that whatever the football structure ultimately evolves to (i.e. 4 -16 school conferences) there is no reason it has to effect any sport but football. For example keep the ACC with Wake competing in everything but football- assuming they are a loser in a new format. In fact for all other sports it probably be better if they went back to being 8-12 school conferences.

  Something to consider is the 16-member conferences -- VTHokie2000 03/24/2016 12:36PM
  16 teams would be far more regionally based... -- jesuisvtguy 03/24/2016 3:54PM
  I agree that it would be regionally base. Except the 4 -- VTHokie2000 03/24/2016 4:21PM
  Agreed a 16 team conference with 2 permanent division of 8 is a disaster -- jesuisvtguy 03/24/2016 8:15PM
