If that should happen - please God! Let it happen - I would think the SEC would step in and regulate the conference as well as they could given the stupid court rulings.



Any attempt to regulate 16 teams out of 130+ will relegate those 16 teams to third or worse class citizens in the CFB world. Regulation of any kind only works when it applies to everyone. The SECs idea of regulation will differ greatly from the Big10s. Its either unfettered competition for recruiting talent or some agreed upon standard for recruiting talent. Having 2 systems in place won't work, having 8 won't work, it is either 1 or none.

Wrong.

Regulation of any kind only works when it applies to everyone in any particular peer group.

Top recruits aren't going to care that UTSA isn't 'regulated' and enroll there, as UTSA can't pay out the money that said top recruit is looking for.

He's STILL going to the SEC/B10/ACC whatever, where he can get paid.

Sure, one or two will fall through the cracks, as some billionaire who attended Slippery Rock doles out the cash to get a single top QB. But those instances will be few and far between.
