Would you ever honestly wish the NCAA Death Penalty on your Rival?

We joke about it all the time and heck, some of us have come close (Alabama 2002
). But would you seriously ever wish the NCAA to lower the ultimate boom on your arch-rival. (and not counting dark thoughts from the hours after the last loss to them)
CONS
Considering such an act would decimate the program, the University and, with the exception of Nashville, cripple the local economy, people jobs and livelihood. If it's a rival you still play then there's revenue that would be lost and if it's in the SEC then the conference takes a hit (the only major program to get the penalty basically brought the SWC down with it) and everyone's schedules get messed up.
PROS
if it's a local rival then the talent market has opened up. Your rival now has a permanent stain on their history and a glorious thing to harp on for decades to come. They'll be as good as a FCS team a you'll probably mount a hefty record against them for the foreseeable future. Their fans will likely go underground for years.

Yes, I could give to shits if clemson never played football again. If anything it would help us dominate instate recruiting even more than we have.

Yes, I would find it hilarious to see the Bama fans who have nothing in thier lives but thier football team, and then see it go away.

SMU considered themselves to have a rivalry with us while they were fielding a semi-pro team back in the late 70s-mid 80s.
Still don't feel sorry for what happened to them...

FWIW you managed to spell "their" wrong twice.

I almost forgot Tulane is our rival, but their program is so shitty right now might as well call it they gave themselves the death penalty. I think 100+ people actually attend games.

nah, probably not. at one point I probably would have said yes, but I have alabama friends
