I think you'll see the NCAA collapse. It's only a matter of time until Title IX is pushed to get equal payment for Women's Bball, Swimming/Diving, Equestrian, et al and Athletic Departments will say "frick this shite" and just nuke scholarship players altogether. The power programs might hold out longer, but small programs and historically mediocre teams (USCe, lol [No, I'm kidding, they have a pretty flush AD fund right now]) will not be able to support themselves and it will dilute the product to the point where the NFL just starts a D-League and schools go back to club programs.
ANARCHY! ANARCHY!

Pats would wheel and deal to draft LSU.

This is really 2 topics. The first is dealing with how paying players will change things and that's a good discussion. The second somehow thinking that NFL teams will use college teams as farm clubs though is so bad I don't even know where to begin. That will simply never, ever happen because it doesn't make sense for anyone.
I do think the SEC is built to last better than any of the other leagues followed by the Big 1G and then a significant step back and followed by the Pac 12. The ACC and BDF are both very fragile and neither is built to last.

Columbia, SC is a good bit closer to Charlotte than Clemson is. It takes just over an hour to get from Columbia to Charlotte, it's roughly 2 hours from Clemson to Charlotte.
Panthers get the Gamecocks.

man, this has been going on for decades, esp amongst the white middle class. imo, it is the sole reason that soccer exists in this country (other than the vast number of "immigrants" that are here). we already have a generation of adults that played soccer and are teaching it to their poor kids, at least those kids that aren't good at any other sport.

I was trying to mix proximity with large living alumni populations
Hence, Texas A&M over Houston and Syracuse over Buffalo

Washington Redskins would obviously draft Ole Miss and allow them to return Col Reb as the mascot.

People do not realize the University Presidents still hold the cards. They will choke out any Union attempt to control College Football. I can not wait until a Womans Basketball Player sues the University once she sees the Football Players getting paid. How about a Honors Student wanting more money, because the University claims him statistically to increase their rankings ?

If what you described happens, I won't be a fan of that division of CFB. I'll find some smaller schools without PFP to become interested in.
