I said this on the rant, but scholarship reductions is needed, and on the horizon. 85 is too much. When the next TV contracts are sign and the B10 sees what the SEC gets, they will be screaming for a balance to competition.

I think so too. What's interesting is that I've seen more articles in the mainstream media the last two days about rebalancing the power in college ball than I've ever seen.

When the national media and particularly ESPN are done watching Bama win it every year, you know change is likely on the horizon.

It still won't stop Saban and Bama from winning 3-4 more titles, but that's fine. Change is needed now to start rebalancing the power for 5 years from now.

I’m not a big fan of taking away from the players now, and I think that’d go over terribly. I also don’t think it’d really make much of a difference the way guys can transfer now. It’s not hard to replace depth fast now.

I prefer scholarship tiers. Top 20 players get the best scholarship paid like a student worker, can do ads and so forth. Next 40 get cost of attendance. Last 25 the classic athletic scholarship.
