I didn’t think of this. It’s going to be top-tier comedy.

Once we see a head coach from a premier school (UGA, OSU, USC, Michigan, etc.) that’s actually winning bolt to the NFL for a coordinator job, maybe then they can have some “NIL is killing football” traction.
Coaches leaving these dead end jobs and betting on themselves elsewhere isn’t any indication of that.
I think NIL but the free transfer of players when coupled with NIL is a bigger factor. I think Bud is too quick to brush all of these occurrences off. I think G5 programs are in a particularly tough spot for a number of reasons:
1. The free transfer players and NIL Make it impossible to build a roster. Even if you do find and develop a diamond in the rough they will just leave your program if they have a good season. Even what Cincinnati did in making the 4 team playoff 2021 is impossible now because all of those players would have transferred after a successful 2020 season.
2. The pipeline of G5 to P5 head coach isn't there anymore. P5 programs would rather hire a P5 assistant then a G5 head coach (even a successful G5 head coach). This is why you see sitting G5 head coaches taking assistant or even position coach jobs at P5 schools.
3. The financial gap between G5 and P5 is only getting bigger. Not only are G5 rosters getting raided but coaches can make as much money being a position coach in the SEC or Big Ten as they can as a G5 head coach.
If they fired him 4 to 5 years ago, there might still be a Pac 12
I think we're speaking more generally than is probably true. And people are being willfully naive if they think G5 superstars only just started getting tampered with last season.

Ehhh.... He wasn't as horrible as Larry, but he was wholly incompetent also. He should have never been made commissioner.I’d blame Larry Scott more than anyone else. He took over in 2021 and basically found out USC and UCLA were leaving a year later. I don’t think there’s anything he could’ve done to prevent that or the rest of the conference crumbling. He essentially took over a sinking ship
CJ a youngin but Fred did win a natty in 96.
They’re including FCS teams too?
