College football needs Nick Saban to become Supreme Emperor of a 50-60 member power league.


















Of course, he is secretly all-in on Bama ruling the league.

It will not matter if it was Saban and/or a super league. The players control the market and the game now. People in these collectives loyal to their alma mater are going to do everything they can to buy a championship. Just like a&m and now UT. Both trying to be relevant.

Super league or not the game as we know is disappearing. Student athletes in the major sports will become a thing of the past. Top athletes will become employees of the university with contracts.

Everyone keeps commenting on a so called super league but will it improve the game? In my opinion it will not and will hurt the athletes in the long run. Sure the 5 star will have a place to play but the majority of players may see their career end in HS. Programs like Dartmouth have stated if their players form a union they will possibly drop the program. They give no athletic scholarships and the football program makes no money. If a super league were to form I would wager many programs will no longer offer football as TV contracts and other revenue will not be available to the majority of programs outside of the super league.

My love for the sport has been waning already and now like others have mentioned the desire to watch it is no longer exciting.
