"I think at some point the P4 will break away for football-only while keeping the NCAA Tournament tent as is for other sports. That will force the G6 to do its own thing. This isn't just media speculation but G6 admin and coaches have said the same thing. Now I don't think this will happen soon. But possibly in the 2030s. If the G6 is forced to start its own playoffs there is no guarantee they will just invite top FCS teams to join their party because they will already feel relegated.

"it's not just a huge one-time cost to get in but it's a year-over-year-over-year-over-year-etc big increase in costs. The MWC doesn't need to add anyone. They didn't need to add NDSU. Which is why NDSU paid $12.5M to get in and won't take distributions for a handful of years while also needing to double its football budget.
