  2. All of you guys are making my point.  If we're in a position to "pay to play"; irregardless of conference affiliation, we'll be in a better position to fight for playoff terms, recruits, etc...  Not every p5 team will want to pony up that kind of money, especially one taht is already deep in the red to begin with, with TV revenue that may or may not be what it once was.  I think we come out of this at the end of the day in a pretty good spot - if we're prepared to pay the stipend.      

  3. To my thinking, the possibility of allowing colleges to pay athletes stipends will drive more realignment then CCG will.  Some P5 schools just won't step up to the plate for that (WF, Pitt, etc...).  Then what?  Aresco sounds like he's pro stipend, and I'm sure USF and most other conference mates will be as well.  I would think the ability to pay this (or not) will be what decides who sits at the big boy table and who doesn't.
