Would Not Bug Me if OSU, PSU, Mich & Oregon All Left B1G for a Super Conference

[Hawkeye_4_Life]

I had always wanted to keep the B1G intact but the Washington Coach said he had heard the NIL payrolls of both OSU and Oregon was $20 million each. Iowa can't compete against that. I realize our payout would drop by 50% or more but that is ok.

If the big name schools all left to be in a Super Conference, I am ok with that.

Iowa just needs to play MN, WI, IL, NW, NE and ISU for a fun season.

Go Hawks!

No, need to eliminate NIL completely and stop being the NFL’s minor league. If kids want to go to college to play on scholarship then that is their pay and contractual commitment. If they want the money, then the NFL needs to finance and establish their own minor league program like MLB. The NFL has already priced out most fans with the cost to attend anyway,

You either pay the money to keep up or you don't.

Again, the new disgrace is not normal. IU, SMU, etc are mining big time boosters to fund historically irrelevant and poorly-run programs. This will be the biggest obstacle to programs like Iowa.

I am not saying I want Iowa to leave the B1G. What I am saying is if OSU, MI, etc all leave to join a Super Conference, that won't bug me.

I’m not sure you understand what that would do to the league.

May as well join the Big XII.
