[QUOTE="TheDrinkinLincoln, post: 2007970, member: 592014"] I respect your opinion, but I disagree because your arguments against are things that CFB already is. A minor league that only has a few prospects that make it to the next level. What coaches besides the very top guys who have already had a shot at the NFL actually stay around at one place for more than 5-6 years? Dabo? Smart? Everyone else is either looking to jump to a P2 Blue Blood or the NFL already. Coaches will likely get the same amount of time they are getting now with current NIL to make an impression 3-5 years. If you're not close to the level you're striving for by then alumni and admins will get frustrated (unless they don't really care) and move on to the guy who can take them to the promised land. The tiers with relegation at least put schools on the same money threshold and rewards teams for doing well. You're telling me we wouldn't be going absolutely bonkers going 10-2 in Tier 2 and having a chance to move to tier 1 and have more money to offer players. It condenses the playing field and makes things at least more exciting than praying we can limp along in the new B1G and go 6-6. As for the magic 5th year laden season that gets a team promoted that's amazing and a great story. The cats out of the bag, money is flowing, and CFB has always been a minor professional league this just tries to level the playing field and concentrate talent so we see the best product. People clamor for the amateurism of the NCAA, but it never existed it was just professional athletes getting trained in a secondary skill for free. [/QUOTE]
