The money is way out of hand in the P5, we agree on that for sure...


I guess I don't see the solution being having the P5 schools play FCS schools. As a fan, I have no interest in them and they are generally such mismatches that I wonder about the safety of it. (I know that sometimes the FCS school wins, but still...)

We know that at VT, the football revenue funds the rest of the athletic program, I would rather see excess funds spent on the other sports than on waterfalls, etc. In the SEC, they don't sponsor as many sports on the average so they can fund the football recruiting machine. I hope VT doesn't fall into that and I don't think we will - we are still trying to endow the scholarships.
