This is laughably false. Without the alumni and fan support college football is nothing. Complete roster turnover every 4 years and the fans still keep it going. We don’t give af who the players are. Replace them all with D3 talent and it wouldn’t matter. We like to cheer for our alma mater or favorite school.

I agree 100%, do you think I've continued to watch Tennessee football every Saturday for the last 2 decades because we're constantly competing for titles? Absolutely not and the same could be said for nearly every SEC school. Saban didn't walk in to an empty stadium and a campus full of people that didn't give a shite because they hadn't competed for years. I honestly think it would be pretty deserving if the g5 separated entirely and all the college football fans started watching MTSU vs ULM instead of LSU vs UT because it was actual college football while the sec vs big 10 paid players challenge turned into the xfl. Truth be told if you want to watch the absolute best in the business play football every week you should have never given a shite about your favorite college or high-school in the first place.
