The Big Ten’s top candidates in 2025 might not even be the top candidates in 2030. It’s no surprise, the Big Ten will prefer AAU membership schools with big TV brands, broad-based sports offerings and long-term accretive metrics along with many, many other factors.

Remember a few months back when — likely at the behest of Greg Sankey — Nick Saban was a point person for getting the ball rolling in DC for the SEC commissioner's preferred college sports legislation? Saban flew to Capitol Hill to meet with congressmen and the president.

Makes sense as there's not a bigger voice in College Football.

Now this from today's article by Ross Dellenger at Yahoo Sports.

Rich Rodriguez answered the phone to hear a familiar voice on the other end.

“Hey, Coach,” he said to Nick Saban.

Saban, the now-retired Alabama head coach, is a West Virginia native himself. He still has deep connections to the state and often roots for its flagship university. On behalf of the school, Saban phoned Rodriguez a few days before his Jacksonville State team played in the Conference USA championship game last December. The goal of the call: Find out if Rodriguez would be interested in returning to West Virginia.

JMO, but Saban — who's a lifelong close friend with retired West Virginia governor and U.S. senator Joe Manchin — isn't doing this big political favor for Sankey without getting something in return.

Watch for it. The Mountaineers are gonna end up in the SEC

Best guess?? Where ND end up? B1G or stay Ind??

Best guess? With ND receiving a projected $10m/yr from UA (assuming UA doesn’t renege on their deal like others), receiving approximately $50m from NBC under their new deal, & as a part time member of the ACC, receiving $17m, they’ll stay Independent. That’s $77m all to themselves; their only penalty of being an Independent is being no higher than 5th in the CFP rankings. Lol

Now if the ACC implodes, that’s a totally different subject. ND has it really good as an Independent, & that’s no doubt in thanks to the pussified agreement...
