They may try to squeeze additional revenue out of TV, streaming, etc. They may even have new revenue streams in mind that don't come from fans. But I suspect you are mostly correct. A lot will likely come from the fans who are the consumers of the product. Just my opinion but I don't think it will kill the sport. Pro leagues are thriving despite the fact that ticket prices, and everything else associated with attending a game, are insane. 2026 World Cup tix are by far the most expensive they've ever been but FIFA received 5MM ticket applications in the first 24 hours. However, unless there is radical change there will be clear winners (the SEC and the Big Ten) and clear losers (everyone else) and that, IMHO, will kill programs. [/QUOTE]
