Just a reminder, the NCAA proposal that allowed for football conference championship games was first passed in 1987. There weren't even major conferences with 12 teams at the time yet that is what was included in the rule. They created a rule to entice expansion. That expansion started in 1990 with Penn State and has continued to this day. Now we see the Membership Committee putting together a proposal for an Autonomy Subdivision in football to give to The Cabinet for vote. When that happens, there will once again be movement but it will happen much more quickly this time around.

@MrTPSM The vote in the CFP doesnt work like that anymore. They wont be uninvited. They will create a second CFP tournament. I have suggested this is why they moved from College Football Playoff to CFP. Changing it to College Football Playoffs would let the cat out of the bag.

@ImmaculateView Actually that makes sense. You need the vote of the entire FBS to expand the Playoff before most schools find out they aren't invited, lol. Problem is you can't only separate the subdivisions for the purpose of Playoff and it has to be voluntary by school.

So many media folks who can so quickly report this or that about what is happening in the talks over the Senate Bill but cant seem to take the time to look through the public information provided by the NCAA that shows the Committee created in January that has worked on the new Autonomy Subdivision during every single meeting it has had since being created. The A4 got their power in August. Football season happens and then right afterwards they form the Membership Committee in January. Six meetings later, only one topic is included in every single one of their meeting agendas that the NCAA publishes for anyone to read. That singular topic is the creation of an Autonomy Subdivision and the direct language is that they were Charged with doing this work. It is their main reason for being created as a new Committee. Yet all these so called media folks wont dare touch it for some reason. They most certainly will pass around this hilariously stupid idea that the B1G and SEC are breaking away from everyone though. Oh the days of when they would actually investigate and report on what they find instead of just being mouthpieces for others.

@BuffalOKstate These kids, when they find their thing, they absolutely excel to a degree that would previously be unimaginable. That was actually amazing.

@MrTPSM Of course they know. Have you not seen some of their Commissioners talking about their own tournament in the future? They know its coming. When that split happens, the post season split has to happen.

@MrTPSM I think those media that actually did see this and ask questions about it, they were probably asked not to bring it up in order to not cause a public stir that might complicate the matter. Essentially a gag in return for other content sourced to them to write about.

@Genetics56 Paused? lol More like completed and on the table waiting for the Cabinet to call it up. Feel free to push all that break away stuff if you like but this is what the A4 is actually working on.

I agree with you. Research dollars make Texas Tech look like an even worse candidate IMO. The lowest FY 2024 budget from the NSF for the B10 was Oregon at $175 million. Texas Tech was at $257 Million Oregon is only $82 million behind Texas Tech and only has a School of Arts and Sciences School of Business School of Design (Architecture) School of Education School of Journalism School of Law School of Music Texas Tech has the same plus a: School of Medicine School of Engineering School of Agriculture Sciences School of Health and Human Sciences School of Veterinary Medicine Texas Tech has a lot more resources to be better than they currently are. Just IMO

@JaredW67913667 Your overall point is valid but the Big Ten Presidents don't care about U.S. News rankings. For them, the defining metric is research dollars. Michigan has over $2B in research expenditures, Nebraska is on the low end at $600M. Texas Tech less than half of Nebraska at $290M.

@DarikHanback Well, previously everyone thought expansion might happen quickly to get ahead of the Bill. I think that time is past but now it might become part of the negotiating.

@JaredW67913667 Well its all a bit rumor mill. It's just to the point though that both of them dont mind the travel as much as they place more importance on who their student athletes are playing against and forming network relationships with.

@JaredW67913667 See you assume Stanford and Cal aren't exactly where they want to be. I don't. Her State is Washington. I dont know why you are inserting them into this.

@JaredW67913667 I think Cal is perfectly fine with where they are. Either you have forgotten or you didnt know that at one point in time Stanford and Cal approached the Ivy together about wanting to join. It didn't happen of course but Cal is right where they want to be.

@ImmaculateView I think Cal is more of who I am referring to of the 2. Stanford I agree with you on.

@ImmaculateView What I am curious about is if anyone else was in the meetings that wasn’t announced. Like some FOX or ESPN people.

@B1OBEY0ND If Brennan succeeds with their offense, decent chance that he will, then you can probably pencil him in as heir apparent to Prime.

@Genetics56 There was a call then they scheduled another call with even more leaders. Generally speaking, that is a good sign.

Big Ten information and news
We need to see those revisions. Is this talk or action? We have seen many times when the Big Ten and SEC have requested changes that didn't happen. This bill making it to the senate floor would not surprise me. That's been my gut feeling for several weeks now.
Ross Dellenger@RossDellenger

On a call with 25+ D1 commissioners today, Sens. Ted Cruz and Maria Cantwell described “positive momentum” around the Senate bill after productive meetings with SEC/Big Ten and detailed bill revisions and an optimistic view of an impending floor vote, sources tell @YahooSports.
