    Some other points:
    -baseball and soccer have no salary cap. As in, there isn't supposed to be an even playing field between teams. It's capitalism at its finest. So I think comparing college sports to the NFL/NBA isn't appropriate--plenty of sports don't have even playing fields.
    - how do you guys think a relegation system would affect recruiting? I suppose very little? Throwing darts here.
    I don't think a relegation system would work as it would create even more of an incentive to cheat while also making filling out future schedules a nightmare

    Relegation systems are designed for professional sports in order to give owners, that are stingy with their money, a kick in the ass to spend more money & attempt to compete.

    For example: a relegation system in baseball would offer the Marlins an incentive to spend money & build a healthy franchise.

    College athletics don't have this problem & a relegation system literally addresses none of the current issues in college athletics
