MEGA Conference Realignment and lawsuits Megathread: Stories, Tales, Lies, and Exaggerations


24 teams is coming. 10/11 game P4 schedules are coming. Conference governance is coming. Realignment is coming. This season will be seismic on and off the field. And miami is positioned perfectly to capitalize.

Requiring 10 games against P4 opponents is the first sensible thing Sankey has done. I'm all on board with that. Also, I am for the expansion of the playoffs as long as some of the old bowls (as they currently do in the CFP) are used as sone of the games to preserve some of the tradition.
He is the best commish out there- exactly what you want your commissioner to be. He’s been making sensible decisions for a long time.
 
He fights for his schools- and he has built his athletic conference into a juggernaut- who cares what he is.

Exactly

He could be a Mr. Nice Guy like Jim Phillips and spend thousands of dolalrs traveling to show his face at games here, there and everywhere.

Where, other than on the verge of a collapse, has that gotten the ACC?

The 15 SEC university presidents not working at LSU have told Sankey they're tired of the hijinx from Kiffin, the Baton Rouge judge and the Louisiana attorney general. Do something about it

So here we are.
 
Does anyone know what the timeline looks like here? Are we even trying to leave?
Seriously? There is nowhere to go TO until the B10 and SEC reach agreement on the CFP format, agree on how many P4 games qualifying schools must play, and the government decides what they plan on doing with the "save college sports act". Decisions will be made, possibly even with the P2 going the route of leaving the NCAA and self governing, and only after the decisions are made WILL THERE be a place to go, Then ... the next realignment phase will take place pretty quickly.

Gotcha. Yes was a serious question. I find all this stuff a waste of time and a clown show so I don't follow it or pay attention to it.
 
We aren’t doing the B1G.

Not anymore - and our recruiting backs it up. We recruit across the SEC, we don’t touch B1G areas.

Last thing we want is November games against OSU and Michigan.
Those BIG pussies tried to lead the way during Covid and found out three other conferences had more balls and intelligence than they did. Then they came back scrambling to be involved in the big dance after their bull**** season. Don’t make **** more difficult for your athletes by going to the BIG.
 
We aren’t doing the B1G.

The SEC is by far the better decision as sportsball goes ... and that's what this decision needs to be about.

Forget the "we don't fit" stuff people say as if we'd belong in a conference with Purdue or Minnesota or Iowa and so on.

Being a complete geographic outlier would be a travel nightmare for which the Canes would be incessantly hammered in recruting.

Nick Saban is a loud voice in Sankey's ear. I'm willing to bet he's gonna look out for one of his favorite sons in Coral Gables

I could not have said this better myself. It’s time to end stupidities like traveling across the country for a conference game.

Our athletes, structure, and game is SEC, it doesn’t match at all with B1G.
