    1. I agree, just disband them already and let schools set up their own conferences and regulate themselves. NCAA pretty much useless now.

  1. The grass is always greener on the other side. The NCAA had its work cut out for it for a long time with so many varied interests they are serving. Say what you want but the NCAA has put on excellent national championships in many sports on many levels for a long time. The conferences and College Presidents and athletic depts will find out the logistics of this are gonna be a nightmare for them without a centralized approach. Good Luck and be careful what you wish for.
