All that would happen is the dominant schools would become that much more picky when "selecting" recruits.  I don't see how it would necessarily change anything.
 
There is no realistic way to change it right now IMO.  You just need to find a diamond-in-the-rough coach, develop an incredible QB and possess a great defense to consistently win.  The biggest issue now IMO is that most coaches' are hungry for their next big paycheck (and rightfully so in this capitalistic world), so tenures at schools are significantly lower than they were 30-40 years ago.  The amount of money in college football is baffling and it is growing by leaps and bounds every year.  The "bigger" schools have deep pockets to pretty much do whatever they want to do (ie. stealing coaches, facilities, etc). 
 
A guy like Scott Shafer may stick around for 20 years if he pans out.  Then again, he might show great success much to our pleasure, before leaving for a $5 mil/year job at an SEC school in 5 years.  Syracuse simply cannot financially compete with that, or should I say [U]"won't"[/U] compete with that?
