Message: [QUOTE="Orangezoo, post: 4722974, member: 237"] It's common sense math. Consolidation pushes programs and fans away from spending their time and money. It adds more competition within the conferences and there is no guarantee you are a bigger winner or long term getting a certain share of money as promised. Revenue comes from having interest. If interest dwindles that money may have to be allocated differently and it could be less money available. Moving to a pond with only big fish means you risk being knocked further down the pecking order. Essentially long term things may be a long ways off from what you got the first few years and what you expected. It's most likely the beginning of the entire format of college sports, especially amateur major sports, changing drastically. [/QUOTE]
