Just reading over an Athletic article this morning. Same disclaimer as always for those that complain about discussing an Athletic article.


This is my third annual Realignment Sucks column, and there’s no reason to think The Great Consolidation I warned about two years ago will stop. Don’t be naive: That process could very well lead to the superconference bottom-feeders getting kicked out. If TV money is worth killing a century-old conference and older in-state rivalries, what’s to keep the next shift from kicking out the schools that don’t bring as much value as the big brands? If I’m Indiana, Purdue, Maryland, Rutgers, the Mississippi schools or anyone on that level, I’d be very worried about the end of the path I’m speeding down.

I don't completely disagree that we should have some pause, but to group us with those schools is assinine.
