As a baseball fan, id love to do this and give baseball scholarships to work with
I'd be alllllll in on that... assuming the contract was a bi-lateral commitment...

Ohio State is the same to the Big 10 as Bama is to the SEC. Why can't other teams build elite programs? Why only about 5-7 teams in the country

True. But I believe Harbaugh will make it like old days in Big 10.

Tennessee is #9 in the country and has 30 yards of offense in second quarter. No competition.

It would help. The current system makes it too easy to monopolize elite talent

Ok. Michigan is one of the 8 teams I talked about.
Alabama
USC
Ohio State
Michigan
LSU
Florida
Texas
Florida State

Michigan vs Ohio state is gonna be the premier rivalry very soon if it isn't this year. Harbaugh and urban are gonna raise the level of the big 10 by being so good... kinda what urban and saban did in the sec

I'd just like to keep guys for 4 years... no more "3 & done"....
But that ain't gonna happen... nor should it...

While I agree there are flaws in the system, we have to taken care of the things we can control first. It doesn't matter what system is in place if we have a coach that's checked out and a circus clown coaching our O Line.

Does it matter? You just replace them with the same player

Something unusual tho. Texas is off the map right now. Doesn't look to be coming back anytime soon. Florida I believe is coming back. But you pretty much have it pegged. As long as 1 of those are in championship game the world is in order ****

Well, it's difficult to keep good coaches when they feel the need to leave your school because they become frustrated with the system. Not only do the MSUs and Ole Misses of college football get worse players, they also lose their best coaches to bigger programs because the coaches become frustrated with the system.

Good idea for all teams except Shotgun's list. That'd even it out some **

So you are in favor of this system?
You disagree that it limits the sport and alienates 90% of college football fans?

Naw ... you saw the sarcasterics. That was for the world is in order to the football powers that be. It would be nice to somehow even out the playing field.

i just think there are plenty of things we can control that we could do better. Improve yourself, don't sit and wait for your surrounding environment to change.

I completely agree, but think both can be true. I feel like your making a parallel argument.
MSU absolutely has to improve things, but we have zero margin for error whereas Alabama has a canyon of margin for error.
Both are true. MSU needs to get better, but the system is awful & is limiting the potential of the sport. There are currently 65 power 5 football schools & only about 5-7 that can legitimately build a sustained championship caliber program. That means that roughly 90% of power 5 schools are getting told to go to hell.

Yea I agree the system is bad. It's probably gonna get worse as we gravitate towards 4 mega conferences. At this point I think if the NCAA proposed something like this the blue bloods would just leave and form their own system.

That's what I think may happen... A self governed "D league" of sorts...
Although, it'd be a lot more than 7 teams in it... and the SEC would be "no more"...
