[QUOTE="fatt lacosse, post: 2010096, member: 750148"] i think it's best for everyone if FBS football just breaks away completely from NCAA division 1 sports. all of the realignment in my lifetime has been driven by football tv revenue (except the resurrected Big East, which was necessitated because football killed the original Big East). i don't know how it would work, but football conferences should just be their own thing separate from other sports. like, there should be conferences for football and then conferences for every other sport. the football ones are driven by the tv agreements that are driving everything now, while the "every other sport" conferences will aim for cross sport compatibility, logistical simplicity and reduced costs.
