Optional yes, but how many schools like a Wake Forest will want to attempt to stay in a P5 situation and find out they can't. They will slowly can their sports until nothing left and they still won't be able to be a big boy at the end if the day. We will see that 40 team super conference and everything else is going to die off. That is alot of kids missing out on college sports at the end of all of this. Sankey and his B10 counterpart care nothing about any level of school outside of their sphere. They will quit playing the ETSUs and Austin Peays of the world and those programs will all die off too. I get market forces and all, but at the expense of most all college sports? Unintended consequences incoming.....
