Kind of hard to believe that the single season home run record for college baseball has stood since 1985.

He was. This is the dirty secret his ilk has been hoping no one is paying attention to. It will start with schools wanting to play above their levels for the sake of football dollars. They will start cutting sports because they have to take from the athletic budget to pay football players after this new settlement. Nothing left to fund the other sports. Just a matter of how long it takes to manifest.

It is optional, afaik. Markets will decide, but if lower level schools don't want to pay or can "only afford" some of it, then it may not be a competitive disadvantage vs equivalent market participants.

The levels of transparency in the market will be interesting to see.


Of course, all of these billion dollar institutions will B&M all the way...meanwhile:

Optional yes, but how many schools like a Wake Forest will want to attempt to stay in a P5 situation and find out they can't. They will slowly can their sports until nothing left and they still won't be able to be a big boy at the end of the day. We will see that 40 team super conference and everything else is going to die off. That is alot of kids missing out on college sports at the end of all of this. Sankey and his B10 counterpart care nothing about any level of school outside of their sphere. They will quit playing the ETSUs and Austin Peays of the world and those programs will all die off too. I get market forces and all, but at the expense of most all college sports? Unintended consequences incoming.....

Why pull Kirby for Tears error? I would have let him go 1 more batter
