I love this channel. Josh is college footballs honesty broker.
Amen
Unless he got a pick right but it came off sketchiness then he just avoids the subject all together
The whole system is a dumpster fire, and it's going to get worse before it gets better.
I fixed the NCAA schedule, and it even makes the bowls relevant since they would be played prior to the playoff selection:
Week 1 August 18-19
Week 2 August 21-26
Week 3 Aug 28-Sept 2
Week 4 Sept 4=9
Week 5 Sept 11-16
Week 6 Sept 18-23
Week 7 Sept 25-30
Week 8 Oct 2-7
Week 9 Oct 9-14
Week 10 Oct 16-21
Week 11 Oct 23-28
Week 12 Oct 30-Nov 4
Week 13 Nov 6-Nov 11
G5 Bowl Week Nov 15-Nov 18
P4 Bowl Week Nov 20-25 (Selection Sunday on the 26th)
Con Champ Nov 27-Dec 2 (ACC Champ gets the Orange Bowl), Big10 - Peach Bowl, SEC - Sugar, Big12 - Cotton Bowl)
(Conference Champs get auto Bye in 12 team playoff)
Round 1 Playoff Dec 4-9
Army Navy Dec 16
Round 2 Playoff Dec 23
Championship Jan 1 (Rose Bowl)
(FCS champ gets the Fiesta Bowl)
I agree totally!!! I am a die hard Nittany Lions 🦁 fan, but old school and hate transfer portal and NIL bullshit, it is ruined college football and opening a pandora box 📦, that is only going to get much worse!!!!
@@kevinchandler179 the NCAA’s new president, Charlie Baker, has proposed a system in which the Universities would actually pay NIL to the players directly instead of collectives. Of course that would come with contractual terms and agreements on transferring. The problem with his proposal, imo, is the University wouldn’t have scholarship number limits and could pay their players with “unlimited educational benefits”. Yikes.
This is why this is basically the only college football podcast/news source I listen to. Josh says and talks about what no other major sports news source will touch
Wasn't aware of the lack of "contracts" for the future of college ball... good job JP. Thus needs to be talked about more. Love your takes.
This was bound to happen. Regulation was always needed. When money changes hands, those with the most power are able to benefit the most.
1) Natty on a Saturday, as God intended.
2) Better bowl incentives to reduce or end opt outs. Maybe tied to NIL?
3) salary caps 😂
Rodger Goodell should make the NFL 22 to enter the draft.. it would make the draft more entertaining
One change I would make: Instead of salary caps, just have a flat salary for all FBS football players, regardless of team (or at the very least, flat within teams, and the size of that flat salary is determined by end of season rankings)
@@milantoth6246if you base salary on rankings, it all gets very top heavy. We’re finally seeing some parity across the board. I know personally I wouldn’t want to see that go away
Changes need to happen. CFB should not be "NFL Lite"
Hi Josh I’ve loved the content for almost 2 years now. Would you talk more about how the transfer portal “screws over” high school recruits/athletes? Youve talked about it here and there but I’d love to hear more
The transfer portal and the NIL needs to be fixed. I can understand wanting to transfer once, but evey year? This is so wrong. If a player takes NIL money, he is now a paid athelete, he should be made to stay at the institute he got paid to play for or pay back most of the money if not all of it.
@@greenwave819eh, not entirely true. You still need to recruit HS players to have any kind of sustained success
@@greenwave819it wouldn’t. These programs are happy to spend unequally except when the players are involved.
Compare alabamas facilities to Tulane’s and then say with a straight face that the playing field was level before NIL was introduced
@@LifeUserthey’re currently only allowed to transfer once for free and after graduation.
They’re still students so limiting their movement won’t work, especially if lawyers get involved. A general population student can transfer as many times as they please, so long as they can afford it and present the right paperwork. That’s the standard ncaa athletes will be held to.
As for NIL. You can’t condition it on the player not opting out. That would be explicitly paying the players to play in games, which by the ncaas own terrible rules would make them ineligible, hence players can opt out without repercussions.
@@LifeUserAre you for real? Coaches move from school to school every year. Do they have to pay the money back? Both are paid for their services. No difference. If the NCAA even hinted at that, they would get sued and lose. And why would anyone anywhere ever have to pay money back if they performed the services they were paid for? Not a lawyer, I see.
Josh, I agree with you about the "way college football is headed". I've mentioned this in several previous videos, my opinion is, first, the people in charge should put more strict limits to the NIL. I also believe we should limit the times a player can enter the transfer portal. I can't believe they are letting 18yrs -- 20yrs old jump around from team to team, then (sometimes) going back to the team they were with in the beginning. Just my 2 cents worth there. Thanks for all you do! Love the shows! You are the best!!
Roll Tide!!
🐘🐘🐘🐘
And that number should be 0.
I love how they didn’t get the motivation until after the destroyed regional conferences. Big 10 accepting Rutgers was one.
I’d rather see an 8 team playoff and bowl games with no opt outs. If you are getting a scholarship and/or getting paid you should play every game unless you get a season ending injury.
Always appreciate your takes man. Thank you for always expressing a fluid and coherent message to your audience. You’ve become very much a go to source for me and my guess is for the same reasons I’m tuned in is why your channel is blowing up. Keep it going like conversations with you and Joel Klatt and others are having are no doubt, making an impact that will hopefully move the sport into a more sustainable position. We all love and care about the sport, and the powers that be have been a disaster by allowing it to slide so far into the abyss it finds itself now.
Should be a 16 team playoff
I've said this before. It looks a lot like it'll be Minor League Football. There's a reason for these giant Conference alignments. If the players are being paid it's no longer College Football. Like in Baseball you have College teams, but you also have Minor Leagues. It's no longer power 5, it's 2 & the rest. Look at ACC, look at Big 8 ,Big East,Pac 10. Might be more levels. Farm teams.
My question is: What's there to stop people from suing over any new rules/regulations anyone tries to put in place around NIL and transfers? The whole reason we're in this mess is people sued the NCAA over NIL and transfer portal rules and the courts sided against NCAA. If a new governing body is made to regulate and put rules around NIL and the portal then won't we likely end up right back here once some group sues over any NIL/portal regulation?
Contracts. They're going to have to go the route of contractual agreements and that would solve it all or offer an arbitration route. Otherwise what you're saying is spot on, there will be more lawsuits.
The NCAA has a new president and he has proposed a system that actually will let the Universities themselves pay the players unlimited NIL as “unlimited educational benefits” of course that would come with contractual terms and agreements.
@@jansonroberts2616 True. Also you should read the article on cbs sports about the upcoming ncaa lawsuit that is very likely to end the ncaa forever. I think Dennis Dodd wrote it.
College football is ruined as we know it
Nah ncaa and schools are about to stop a lot of this transfer portal, opting out, and bowl game bs. I feel like some type scholarship or contractual agreement will prevent these players from just up and leaving.
@@205BeezyB I hope so, I don't want college football to turn into the NFL. I haven't watched an NFL game in 7 or 8 years!!
@@ridgerunner3364 nah they gonna handle it bro, the players did too much honestly, so they kind of ruined it themselves but they are definitely gonna crack back on it. And have limitations. Don’t be surprised if scholarships start coming with some type of agreement to stay on that team for at least 3 years or something crazy like that
Hey Pate, thanks for the info. You're the best!Could you do a show that addresses 5-10 of the most problematic issues confronting CFB currently. You mentioned that there was alot of consensus at the meeting you attended and cited advertiser's being leary of investing in a product thats so clouded with uncertainty. What are some of the other issues? Certainly issues around NIL, the portal, the playoffs and recruiting exist. What else is causing concern?
With SO MUCH change so haphazardly entering the landscape in the last few years its left this great game - and golden goose - punch drunk and
seemingly under the control of bean counters only interested in short term profits.
Just shows you college football is no longer about Saturday, it is about the money.
It’s been that way for decades going back 30-40years
I'm well on my way to being a grumpy old man, and if I had the powers of a deity I'd put college football exactly back to the way it was in the early 1980's.
That being said, since change has to happen, lets make dawggone sure that change is of the "good for the sport" variety.
No f’n way would I want a champion based on media votes.
@@xandercrews4729mythical championships are clearly
Better than seeing things play out in the field. Right? Right?
@@RD-wg9em and the media is totally honest and would never push an agenda.
@@xandercrews4729 😂😂😂
@@RD-wg9em seriously, think about if we let people like Dan Wolken or Nicole Auerbach have a legitimate vote on who the National Champion should be.
"It’s a big club, and you ain’t in it. You and I are not in the big club. - George Carlin
No, but without us as fans, there’s no club, period. I think the Portal and NIL are good in theory, but they’re being exploited often to the detriment of the sport overall.
there has to be a way to make NIL the same across the board so that CFB does not become just a bidding game. the NFL has revenue sharing and ways to keep balance, a key factor in their success.
But you can't pay a 3rd string OL the same as a Heisman candidate QB. No way that would ever work. I do agree everyone should get something.
@@joshsmith6043 agreed. I was referring more to a spending cap per team like the NFL has, not a per player equivalence across the team.
@@drm9979 OH, I see. That makes sense. Great idea 👍
the entire point of NIL is that it exists outside of the control of the schools and the NCAA. the only way to regulate it would be through scholarships (and the schools shouldnt allow scholarship players to do NIL)
@@macseamus835 wtf are you talking about? Schools shouldn't allow scholarship players to get NIL? That's why the NCAA was sued. Listen up, band players on scholarship get paid outside of school, just as any other scholarship student can. Making an exception against athletes is illegal and always was illegal and anti-capitalist.
Pate now understands NIL and portal ruined the sport, something most were saying two years ago. Every one of these youtubers was wrong. They couldn't even call out that NIL was pay to play.
Exactly! Because pay to play never existed before.
The only reason the youtubers were so vocal in support ofall this sh1t is because they wanted yearlong drama to post about!!
It’s not meant to be pay to play but that’s essentially what it is more so how it’s being used. Thanks boosters
Am I the only person in the country who thinks public universities (and thus, taxpayers) shouldn't be paying to basically run the NFL's minor league system?
It should be a deal where a kid can do an NIL deal or have an athletic scholarship, not both.
@@ccampauNIL isn’t tied to the university, it’s the individuals name, image and likeness. Telling a kid he can’t get an athletic scholarship because a company wants to give him a sponsorship deal is okay with you? Apply the same to Academic as well.
None, or at least very little taxes are used towards athletics.
@@FLA813BMO i can tell you dont rly know what youre talking about. 1 academic scholarships come with all sorts of strings attached. 2 NIL restrictions are routine - if you get a deal with Mcdonalds theyll say you cant get another deal with burger king. 3 the scholarship agreement could include exclusive NIL rights, making it completely legal. dont take the scholarship if you dont want it. 4 players would only be getting sponsored by companies because of the platform college football provides. if they get to that point they can pay college tuition
the reason this restriction is necessary is because choosing to stay in college over going pro for a chance at a million dollar contract is becoming a routine decision. no other career path operates like this. college is for learning and personal development, not an opportunity to make money
The NFL doesn’t play football, they play at football. Josh I am sure you know more former NFL players than I. College doesn’t need lower itself to NFL standards…CFB still hits. My position coach Larry Dorsey told us that when money enters a game, it changes the game. I was handsomely paid at D2 Delta State…I earned a degree and I didn’t owe any money.
Josh, which offensive direction is Navy football headed?
Thanks
Great Stuff Josh!! YOU ARE WAAAAAAY AHEAD OF THE GAME WITHIN THE GAME!! Here we Go!!

Josh I have been watching your show for a long time and I just realized you are the CEREBRAL show of all these College Football shows .
Period
Been watching college football 50 plus years. The game is constantly changing. Transfer portal needs tweaking, but overall things are very good!
I think player contracts are coming soon and yes this will make them employees. That way they will have to finish the current contract before entering the portal(free agency). The next few years will be interesting to say the least.
That’s gonna ultimately be the only way for the institutions to assert control.
Once legal challenges are made the transfer portal will go up in smoke. As limiting only athletes in that aspect is not gonna hold up.
It's a Billion Dollar Business run on the backs of "student-athletes" lmao....it's a joke. If coaches sign contracts why don't the players sign contracts? It's all about money anyway, lets just be honest about it. These Super Conferences and extended Playoffs are nothing more than money grabs.
Unsurprisingly, when you start losing money, you adjust your habits quickly. Change needs to happen. A true enforcement of the rules needs to happen and the NCAA has proven incapable of handling that aspect fairly and equitably. Interesting times ahead.
One thing that was “proposed” and quickly changed was Fox Sports politely told B1G they want USC added (came w UCLA) before the new contract was signed (confirmed but FS execs) this isn’t as simple blaming student athletes when the older adults have been making poor decisions on many levels incl ncaa who should just evaporate
The reason USC and UCLA left wasn’t because of fox sports. The commissioner of the then pac-10 made a tv deal with Comcast and added the pac-12 network. So if you live in LA would would not be able to watch SC or UCLA on some weekends. This caused UCLA to lose sponsors and they went completely broke to the point where the campus almost had to be shut down. USC wanted Texas and OU to join the pac-12 but Oregon and a few other schools blocked it, so USC and UCLA applied for the big 10
Nice to see some positivity on the future for CFB for once. One of my major gripes with the show is its a bit doom & gloom.
They really need to fix how and when the portal opens...especially when it opens and the season isnt even open, but i do think the 12 team playoff will be pretty awesome
I’d rather scale it down to 8.
Josh you’re the best sports guy I follow! Thanks 🤘🏼
Big changes are needed. The NCAA needs to be disbanded and replaced by a commissioner who can arrange the conferences, get rid of the little nobody teams like Mercer, maybe there should be revenue sharing, the 6-6 vs 6-6 bowl games need to go away. I think you should have to win 7 or 8 games to get a bowl.
Ever since NIL entered the picture, I said from the start that CFB would have to move towards an "NFL" setup. Be that contracts, structured monies for positions, revenue sharing, X amount of years, etc... Thank the useless NCAA for this, when it all entered the courts they understood they would lose, and just walked away from it. They had ample time to put some structure to it, but they just walked away from it all...
Does EDUCATION play a part in this soap opera? Never heard Josh mention that? No one talks about it. Everything is about money, NIL=$$$$, Playoff=$$$, TV contract=$$$. The reason for college is to get an education. Football used to be extra ciricular activity, but now is only a business. Did Josh mention the thousands of dollars in scholarships these player receive? Didn't hear it, if he did. Only a small fraction of college players make it to the pro game. Education has been ignored by the money men. College football has been headed toward becoming the minor league for the NFL for years. You can thank TV money and the NCAA for that. The 12 team playoff will go to 16 soon. Two conferences with divisions, play offs, wild card, etc. It has ruined the "sport." Just my opinion, for what it's worth.
@@allanfranklin9615 totally agree. college football needs to be rightsized. schools like alabama ohio st etc should have full-time football programs where the players focus their time on football preparing for the NFL without a normal load of coursework - theyd graduate with a degree in football. schools like vandy and northwestern should move to a full extra-curricular model similar to club sports and stop recruiting athletes into their academic programs which are very selective in acceptence. no other country mixes school and sports to this degree and its becoming obvious why - massive conflicts of interest
@@macseamus835Football should be a degree program like anything else. You're doing it for a potential future career anyhow, just like everyone else in college. Is it a selective job? Yes but so are the number of potential "students."
There is nothing the college football fan can do about it. We just have to accept it or stop watching. Im dont really care about most of this stuff as long as the game on the field is exciting as its always been. The game itself blows NFL games out of the water.

Would the first round be higher seed hosts?
It would never happen but I’d love to see some kind of elevation and relegation.
Yes, there is no way that an Oregon team should play an Ole Miss team in Atlanta, GA if Oregon is ranked higher in a playoff scenario. One of the weaknesses of the BCS era was that 80 percent of Bowl games took place in the south, giving those southern teams a little built in homefield advantage, since bowls are played at fixed locations. Under my format, the Big bowls turn into Conference Championship games, and the mid tier (Power 4) bowls maintain their fixed location, and act almost as a mini playoff between conferences prior to the real 1st round of the playoff, the outcomes of those bowl games would impact the inclusion and seeding of teams 5-12 This is the Power 4 bowl format (Week 15), that I would put in place, that would help decide the 5-12 seeds:
1. Fiesta (Big 10 #3 vs SEC #3)
2. Citrus (Big 12 #3 vs ACC #3)
3. Music City (SEC #4 vs ACC #4)
4. Sun (Big 10 #4 vs. Big 12 #4)
5. Alamo (SEC #5 vs Big 12 #5)
6. Holiday (Big 10 #5 vs. ACC #5)
7. Liberty (Big 12 #6 vs ACC #6)
8. Motor City, (Big 10 #7 vs SEC #7)
9. Gator (SEC #8 vs. B10 #8)
10. Las Vegas (Big 10 #9 vs Big 12 #7)
11. Pinstripe (ACC #7 vs. SEC #9)
12. Independence Bowl (ACC #8 vs. Big 12 #8)

Everybody needs to pay attention to this! And subscribe to this channel!!!
Money is the root of all evil. College football is going to be ruined in the next 5-10 years. Enjoy it while it lasts fellas.
Absolutely, Cap!!
Been saying for a while player contracts solves most of the problems.
Nick Saban said best semi pro
This guy is one of the most astute college football analysts out there.
Only the ACC conference is stupid enough to sign a long term contract without knowing what's ahead.
Pate State notification gang for life 🙏
NIL and transfer portal are making the games more competitive. It won’t be the same four teams dominating each year. The problem is with players opting out these bowl games m. You have to figure out away to incentives and make these teams and players want to play. When more teams have a chance the games are more exciting.
Very simple. When the players are officially declared to be employees (as you know some court will decide they are), then you'll have the same situation as in pro sports leagues like the NFL, MLB, NBA, etc. The NCAA will have to collectively bargain with them and a CBA will have to be put in. As part of that CBA, the NCAA can put in that players are not allowed to opt out of bowl games.
why do you believe nil makes it more competitive? it seems to me the rich schools now have an extra edge in getting the best players. that makes it less competitive in my view. transfer portal i agree, a player who is stuck on the bench or in an unhappy situation going to a better opportunity is a competition enhancer.
@@drm9979you’ve got 2 teams playing for a title that aren’t Bama, UGA, Clemson, or OSU.
True, I didn’t even watch the orange bowl because I knew it would be a shit show. So many players opted out, I’m guessing to punish the CFP commission. It didn’t really work and the Noles still ended up disregarded even more. Not a fan of either team but these bowls are fun match ups sometimes. However not when damn near the whole FSU team opted out. Wasn’t worth watching 🤷🏻♂️
@@dentonyoung4314this precisely. The ncaa created this rod for its own back by insisting on maintaining amateurism around a billion dollar industry. Just be done with it and these issues solve themselves
"BIG CHANGES ARE COMING..." just *not a rule to include undefeated power-5 teams* in the playoff.
I'm still kinda surprised that's not what people want, especially FSU's fanbase, but I thought for sure it had a good chance of happening until recently. 🤔
I for one, who played football all through school, am NOT pleased with the NIL, and transfer portal. It creates ONLY problems. Should players get money? Sure, they have responsibilities as married, family, etc. There should be a cap on monies given to players. Not a million, or $100,000. Todays rules make us fans disinterested in college football. You loose the fan base, your done as far as revenue. The fans make the money. One more thing, many can’t afford ESPN to watch college football. It’s all a money making grab in my humble opinion. The empanadas should be on the game, not money hungry garbs. If it’s not fixed, many fans will stop watching these games. I for one, am very close to stop watching games. And I dearly love college football. All have a line, when it’s crossed? BYE
Appreciate your insight and opinions
You only need 8 teams, and the bowl season launches the playoffs. Start NIL the junior year, and sit our 1 year if you transfer, which happens at the end of the spring practice season
yea make the transfer portal players sign a contract - you could say you can't leave for 2 years or whatever
The nil money should come with multi year contracts.
The three things that need to happen- One: AD's need to take power from the President's. Two: You can only enter the transfer portal once. Three: Get NIL under control, no more pay to play.
Lol yeah… let’s keep funneling money to advertisers and presidents but let the players who are turning their brains into jello rely on Enterprise’s new insurance
I agree 100%. Why let the whiners ruin the sport ? A four year all expense pains education is worth something !
@@billp5656 that 4 year tuition doesn’t add up to the billions of dollars generated by the players annually.
NCAA ruined its chances with Doing anything regarding NIL, Supreme Court stepped in and nobody goes above them.
I think we're about to see the beginning of a few things: Conferences will eventually be merged into one league with X number of teams. NIL will be regulated. Rules will be made regarding transfers, opt-outs, etc. The bowl system will be replaced by a playoff system. No team wants to play for charity when there's a risk for player injury.
I don’t see how you can police NIL. That would be like chasing ghosts. But you can tie NIL payments to playing a full season, to include bowl games. You can also stop the portal madness.
I cant believe he referenced that Wilson-Philips song....
Recruiting high school kids is a full-time job. Having to constantly re-recruit your roster will end up chasing away a lot of coaches. It's untenable.
“Like herding Cats” -HAHA, good one, Josh.😁😁
Only open the transfer portal during the off-season. Transferring before the season’s even over or transferring 3-4 times is out of control. That goes for coaches too; they can’t leave until their season is over. It’s a distraction and not fair to their team.
Teams/players care more about NIL deals than winning games, and very few athletes will actually get NIL deals.
Non-football sports play 2-3 games a week and for the teams that have to travel across the country, that’s a lot of time and it’s expensive. Football is one game a week and the regular season is 12 weeks. But there’s basketball, volleyball, baseball/softball, soccer…all those teams have to travel a lot more than football teams and they have to travel across the country now that there’s conference realignment. Regional conferences make sense.
Like Chris Petersen said in a podcast recently, there are no guardrails. They’re not all playing by the same rules in different conferences. The NCAA was so unwilling to adapt for so long, they went from one extreme to the other with no limitations or regulations.
Universities asking alumni to buy tickets, make annual donations to their athletic fund, donate to educational funds and now to an NIL fund is BS. The NIL wasn't designed for a slush fund to buy players it was designed for players to use their name image and likeness to make money on themselves. I will not contribute money to buy players. Perhaps things will move in the direction as Pate suggests.
Ladies and gentlemen, please take a look across the pond at European football. They have your answers. Was pretty much the same thing but instead of students they were factory workers
The expansion SHOULD keep more players on more teams as far as opt outs. Still, the lesser bowl games will have more opt outs
Put them at the beginning of the season
@joshpate CFB is not hard to fix. Let me show you...
1. Transfer Portal opens after the CFB championship.
2. Do away with the early signing period.
3. Bowl eligibility should be raised to 7 or 8 wins.
4. The 5 P5 Conf Champs get an automatic bid, followed by the 6 highest ranked P5 teams, then have the 2 highest ranked G5 teams play a play in game, that will make for less players opting out of games. The only ppl that will be opposed to this are sec fans or the sec conf...
There aren’t 5 P5 conferences anymore. Just 4.
@jansonroberts2616 Technically, there's still 5 P5 conferences, but even if there are just 4, the format stays the same, you just do it with 4 teams...
Conferences should impose team NIL caps. There should be a playoff commissioner--not commission--so that selection is transparent and accountable. The NFL should compensate their college farm clubs.
This was a Supreme Court decision. It takes an act of congress.
So act already.@@matthewfrazee3352
This is such a laughably bad take
Can you explain why?@@gamecokben
Using NIL to get recruits instead of retain players is going to be a sticking point for a lot of these folks.
I think the portal opens after the bowl games. If your team doesn't make a bowl, then you can enter after the season. That way, the teams playing bowls are the same as the in the season. ImO
Add gamblers and gambling sites, DING ESPN, follow the money. If gambling sites, ESPN, doesn't like it, it finally changes.
Exactly, to hell with the game and players, just bring on the money!
The same shit teams used to get put on probation for are being celebrated and encouraged!!! Disgusting, and by the way 8 team playoff should have been the absolute max, 12 teams are way too many, because it rewards too many teams about making mistakes in the regular season, and let's them actually not focus as much on the regular season, because they know they can stumble in? Ridiculous
Calling it now, the writing's on the wall. College football is heading directly for a total restructure. There will be a CBA, The student athletes will be employees, and there will be unionization. There's just too much money and far too few of rules or ways to enforce them.
The last thing college football needs is a corrupt union to funnel more money to corrupt politicians!! The ncaa needs to its job, but instead, it has let espn and the like make a mess out of college football.
I think college should be just like the NFL rules and all why should you have to worry about rule changes when going into the NFl
Your youtube Chanel is light years ahead of ESPN/Disney Chanel.
Up the tournament to 16 and provide all conference championship with auto bids
I believe that the bowl games probably should be done during the year as one of the non conference games and be made into events
Was there not a video about "nick saban responds to potential sign stealing"? Could have sworn I got a thumbnail alert for that video last night. Planned on watching it today and can't find it.
The 12-team playoff will make a HUGE difference. In a 12-team playoff, no undefeated conference champ (and their fanbase) gets left out. In a 12-team playoff, NO players from a top-10 team will be sitting out the bowl games. And only a handful of players on non-playoff bowl teams will sit, because those teams won’t have a ton of early round NFL talent, and most of those teams tend to be excited to go to a bowl for the right reasons-reward for a decent season, and the extra practice and experience for a program which hopes to be even better next year.
The day is here that a great kid from a non-contender is going to leave that school mid season to go play for a real contender to win a title. Liberal/woke judges will never prevent that.
The elite want to see college athletics destroyed.
So, you can hope for a better outcome. But, the future does not look favorable.
The kids and their dads (think agent) will be so powerful, should any form of the current system survive, universities will be at the mercy of the athletes. Coaches will be fired and programs will be leveled. It already happened to Mike Leach.
One thing for sure.
Coaching salaries are the T Rex in the room. There is a reason we don’t have dinosaurs anymore.
College football has become so monetized that it's rather unbearable to watch. With so many players jumping into the transfer portal, it's difficult to even follow who is on what team from one season to the next.
This video gives me some hope. However, I am not watching until unlimited free agency, Bowl opt outs and NIL are addressed. Institute minimum 3-yr player employment contracts (bowl included) with university and player buyout clause. It’s time for universities and players to face ramifications for bowl opt out and transfers. All contracts will be public knowledge as players are university employees. NIL should go back to its original version as frosting on the cake through player jerseys and advertisements.
The problem Josh is that College Football is a professional sport but not governed in that way. CFB must and will adopt the NFL model and it will happen sooner rather than later.
I fixed the NCAA schedule, and it even makes the bowls relevant since they would be played prior to the playoff selection:
Week 1 August 18-19
Week 2 August 21-26
Week 3 Aug 28-Sept 2
Week 4 Sept 4=9
Week 5 Sept 11-16
Week 6 Sept 18-23
Week 7 Sept 25-30
Week 8 Oct 2-7
Week 9 Oct 9-14
Week 10 Oct 16-21
Week 11 Oct 23-28
Week 12 Oct 30-Nov 4
Week 13 Nov 6-Nov 11
G5 Bowl Week Nov 15-Nov 18
P4 Bowl Week Nov 20-25 (Selection Sunday on the 26th)
Con Champ Nov 27-Dec 2 (ACC Champ gets the Orange Bowl), Big10 - Peach Bowl, SEC - Sugar, Big12 - Cotton Bowl)
(Conference Champs get auto Bye in 12 team playoff)
Round 1 Playoff Dec 4-9
Army Navy Dec 16
Round 2 Playoff Dec 23
Championship Jan 1 (Rose Bowl)
(FCS champ gets the Fiesta Bowl)
Something it was never intended to be!!
@@ridgerunner3364 Yet is today. Money does that
I can tell you what more powerful than the coaches when the fans quit watching it The transfer portal the players making money and political correctness getting into college football is going to be the downfall of it And if you disagree that you’re right and it’s my right to state what I believe
Thanks for telling the truth Josh
Question here are the schools themselves going to be up to this they still have to enroll these kids. Unless we can move the enrollment schedule for every school idk how this would work
Well done
The problem is the TV networks. College football should do what is best for college football with or without TV networks. Lots of people always forget that these are kids were talking about.
They are young adults. They aren’t kids anymore.
I hope so so the wild wild west can be reigned in
Lawyers and agents have nearly ruined a once great sport. Lord knows I hope you're right with your predictions @6:45ish...
While I agree with you 85% of the time, this is not one of those times.
The NFL product is watered down garbage, that has priced out everyday fans. It has become a place where high up business meetings are conducted during the game, and a place for celebrities to gather to keep their names relevant.
Keep college football, college football with 85k to 100k screaming crazy people. That’s what makes the sport great, not corporate snobs who couldn’t give you the score while the game was going on.
Here I was thinking JP was going to bring up FSU flipping from the ACC to the B1G
FSU knew exactly what they were doing... This IS going to happen fast.. if FSU gets out of the ACC the status quo is going to absolutely blow up..
The big 4 commissions need to get in a room and get a committee together that breaks away from the ncaa in football. If they want to break away in all the other sports that's fine too.
I forsee ticket prices and tv subscriptions going through the roof soon. That's the downside of any "alliances" that may happen.
NFL lost me years ago. CF lost me when they destroyed the PAC 12. Whole system is corrupt
Simply moving the bowl games to preseason would go a long way to making them tenable. The question is, where is the NCAA on the topic/s, or, will it even need to be involved???
I say have bowl games mid season so we can match up the teams that make sense. Like how college basketball has tournament within the season.
@@TheOpinionSports In my mind that would still result in poor quality and low interest in the games.
In the preseason fans have had a 6, 7, maybe 8 month drought in CFB. At that point we're ready to pull $10 tricks in a back alley to see a game... we'll watch anything!
We need change for sure
The writing has been on the wall ever since the O'Bannon decision that college athletes were going to end up being contracted employees. What's so pathetic about this sport is that the "brains" wait until the sport is suffering before doing anything. The courts and Congress have made it clear the old way of doing business is dead. Free transfers are not great for the health of the sport. The ESD has led to coaching carousel chaos and even more unwatchable bowls.
Make the kids employees, sign them to contracts, end unilateral transfers, and get this sport back to what made it great: watching which teams can develop young men over the course of 3-4 years into the best players possible.
Just like everything else...once $$ is introduced to the equation it turns to shit. Unfortunately that's usually a pandora's box. The playoff expansion will make it a tad better. But i think the sport we knew & loved has fully died at this stage.
Agreed, and we were warned what would happen, and it did just that!!
I could have sworn i watched this video word for word the other day?
Will eventually come down to two Uber conferences of 48 total teams for 24 teams in each conference. They will kick out the bottom feeders in the conference and add top teams from ACC and Big12. Then follow the NFL model and implement a revenue sharing plan just like the NFL. This will become JV NFL
I like the idea of a split FBS to a 64 team premier league and a second tier. Have relegation with the worst 3 teams being replaced by the best 3 of the second tier every year. Keep some protected rivalry games. Lose the conferences and keep the regular season regional. Have it only for football.
Kirby probably put the nail in the coffin
2 years in a row UGA blew someone’s doors off. I loved it but most people don’t.
One group not mentioned- the players. NIL came about because players filed and won lawsuits.
