Re: This merger was discussed not too long ago. And what would make sense,


Consolidating geographically would be a good start, but their ultimate survival will require more extreme changes. The big media companies have made it clear that they will spend their money in competitive bids for P5 rights. They have little interest in G5 schools and they will continue to starve these programs into submission, like the MAC playing weeknight games. G5s might benefit most by moving their entire season to the Spring months, following basketball season. Even then, they might end up on regional television, only. The P5 schools seem to be the only ones deemed worthy of national advertisers' attention.
