"If we are throwing out crazy realignment scenarios I think a football-only 20-team league (USC Oregon Utah Washington Texas Texas A&M Oklahoma Michigan Ohio State Penn State Notre Dame LSU Alabama Auburn Georgia Tennessee Florida Clemson FSU Miami) is what I'd propose if the only goal was to get huge ratings numbers. Everyone plays X league games annually and can play your other X against anyone else. Guaranteed 5-6 games that will absolutely crush each week. This is way less crazy than that 72-team thing thrown out today. Also a 20-teamer wouldn't work because the good-ol-boy system exists"

"One thing that came out of the Kraft issue is the rural schools are at a disadvantage when the players earn more. If you are a 21yo guy who is netting 500K (no real expenses) youre likely gonna want access to the type of nightlife and scenery you can get in a big city because you can now afford it. Bama being able to day trip Atlanta is huge as one of the players or assistants in the recording pointed out"
