Message: [QUOTE="longtimefan, post: 5024031, member: 212"] This is the crux. Although this has been the historical paradigm, there is no reason for it to continue. The NFL isn't involved in baseball or basketball. The NBA has nothing to do with football or hockey (except to sometimes share arenas). And that's not even considering the individual sports. The pro leagues are in a much better place than are NCAA college leagues. As has been mentioned here and in many other places, the big-time football schools should break off and form their own organization. As it is now, D-I football is the one sport that the NCAA is not involved in (the CFP is in charge). Then schools could reorganize into regional leagues for all of the non-football sports, returning some sanity to the whole project. (Not to mention saving travel costs and giving their athletes a chance to be real students.) The question is--would SU qualify to be in a Big Boy Football League? [/QUOTE]
