  • You're not wasting your time when you watch this show.
  • Now, I can say that all I want to, but sometimes I need someone else to step up and prove it to you.
  • So Greg Sankey did it today.
  • Greg Sankey, SEC Commissioner, goes on the Paul Feinbaum Show, and he said a lot.
  • He said so much.
  • So credit to them for getting it out of him.
  • And, you know, as Meemaw once told me, don't tell me you told me so, show me you told me so.
  • Well, Meemaw, we did it.
  • Or Greg Sankey did it for us.
  • So remember last week?
  • Remember when everyone was focused on all of the ripples and waves of conference realignment, and I came on the show and I said something that I don't think anyone else was saying, and I said, hey, forget about conference realignment.
  • Yeah, it's happening, but we can't stop it.
  • But that's not the big news.
  • Only because it was imminent for a long time.
  • Remember back in spring?
  • I told you Colorado was gonna be on the move.
  • I told you as much as I could that Oregon and Washington were gonna be on the move.
  • So it was no shock on this show, nor should it have been for you when they made the move.
  • And so I came on the show last week, and I said, guys, it's not about realignment.
  • That's been done for a while.
  • It's just playing out in front of the public now.
  • I told you the conference and the tie-in situation with the playoff is what you need to pay attention to.
  • I told you the college football playoff is really what's at stake here.
  • You know my feelings on the playoff.
  • I couldn't care less about this, but I know the sport revolves around it right now for a lot of you.
  • And you got your expanded playoff, and I told you the college football playoff and the structure of it, that's what's really at the forefront of all this.
  • I looked at the comments.
  • We got some feedback on that was less than desirable.
  • Well, do you believe Greg Sankey?
  • He goes on the Paul Feinbaum show today.
  • Actually, I've got the quote here.
  • And he said, quote, it's wise for us to take a step back and reconsider what the format of the playoff might look like given the changing circumstances.
  • Translation, there is no shot in you know where that we are stepping to a table and agreeing to six auto-bid spots in any future playoff.
  • If you wanna keep 12 teams, that's fine.
  • We're gonna need either all at-larges, or we're gonna need like an 8-4 model or a 10-2 model.
  • That's where it's headed.
  • That's where it was always headed.
  • It was one step at a time.
  • Had to get the expanded playoff first and agree to this ratchety half-and-half system which was never gonna stand because we all, well, we all, they all knew conference realignment was gonna blow that entire process up.
  • Conference realignment has come.
  • It has blown the entire concept of having six auto-bid spots for conference champs up.
  • And if you're new to this, all that means is there are 12 playoff spots in 2024 and 25. Those are the two years on this current deal.
  • There are gonna be 12 playoff spots.
  • Six of them are reserved for the highest-ranked conference champs.
  • The other six are just whoever's rated the highest gets in.
  • Greg Sankey, Tony Petitti up in the Big Ten, they have pretty much sucked all the oxygen out of the college football room.
  • And they've got most of the power brands in college football.
  • They may not be done.
  • And they're looking around saying, wait, if we've got all the good teams, why would we ever agree to a format that gives opportunity that we don't think is deserved to some other conference champ?
  • Just cause they won an inferior conference.
  • And hey, on principle, I agree with them.
  • I just hate that the sport came to this.
  • So that's the first thing Greg Sankey said today.
  • Check mark, number one.
  • But he wasn't done validating what we talked to you about last week.
  • Also last week, Pac-12 just imploded, as I've said several times now, in on itself like a dying star.
  • And as the Pac-12 was imploding, nobody really liked it, did they?
  • At least as far as I could tell, no one really liked it.
  • Now remember, at the time, everyone was kinda downtrodden.
  • I say everyone.
  • A vast majority of people I heard from, college football fans, did not like what happened last week.
  • Well,
  • I actually tried to be the ray of sunshine for you.
  • We did the old fireside chat the other night to rave reviews, so we will bring it back.
  • Not today, cause the studio's already hot enough, but we will bring it back.
  • But I told you guys and girls, I told you that people heard you.
  • I told you folks heard you complaining.
  • I told you the powers that be, those string pullers behind the scenes, some of them visible, some of them totally anonymous, realized, whoa, we may have kicked over a much bigger anthill than we thought here.
  • They're always used to a little criticism.
  • Okay, when they re-engineer the sport to small degrees incrementally to ultimately fit their college worldview, they're used to you chirping a little bit.
  • But that's all it is, it's a little chirping.
  • They know you're still gonna show up.
  • They know you're still gonna buy the merch.
  • They know you're still gonna watch the game, subscribe to the packages, et cetera.
  • They have never heard you collectively as pissed off as you were last week, and it was pretty much nationwide.
  • Like, no one liked it.
  • These people got rattled behind the scenes.
  • I know, I talked to some of them, they got rattled.
  • But what helped was Greg Sankey today on the Paul Feinbaum Show flat out saying, yes, we've had our part in conference realignment in the SEC, and I will take the fault for that if there's fault to be had,
  • But he said, paraphrasing, it felt different last week.
  • Really, did it feel different?
  • Yeah, I bet it did feel different last week.
  • You know what folks need, don't you?
  • The most greedy folks in the world need what they are requiring to maintain its value.
  • Otherwise, it's just greed for greed's sake.
  • And if you are a rights holder, if you're a stakeholder, if you're a commissioner, if you're a television executive, notice I'm not talking about fans and players, we really play no part in this, but if you are one of those entities,
  • You better make sure that product maintains its value.
  • It'd be short-sighted to think folks would never walk away from this sport.
  • Now, I'm not walking away, because I think we're a long, long way from the sport going over the cliff, but that's just the thing.
  • Smart, sage business people understand you don't hit the brakes once you get to the slippery slope, you hit the brakes well before it.
  • Now, this is a sport totally void of centralized leadership right now.
  • College football is basically like me at Harris County Carver Middle School back in sixth grade when one of our teachers had to take an indefinite leave of absence.
  • And Mr. Copeland comes in, bless his heart, substitute teacher for weeks.
  • You know what it's like to have a substitute teacher for an extended period of time near the end of the school year?
  • It's like a carnival every day.
  • It's wonderful for the student.
  • Well, in college athletics, that's what we've had, substitute teacher vibes.
  • No one's really in charge.
  • You can get away with pretty much anything you want to.
  • Unfortunately, in this sport, shooting a rubber band at your friend's ear or throwing a spitball against the TV is, hey, let's just go acquire some properties.
  • Hey, let's implode a conference, why not?
  • Yeah, yeah.
  • Well, here's the problem.
  • Eventually, seventh grade comes for most of us.
  • Lost some good men along the way in that sixth grade class, but seventh grade ultimately comes.
  • And in college football, ultimately, you gotta make sure that those properties you're acquiring and the overall property itself that you're enriching yourself off of maintains its value.
  • And if people walk away, it doesn't maintain its value.
  • It doesn't succumb to it overnight, but eventually it does.
  • They realized it last week.
  • I told you, a lot of these folks are average people.
  • Now, Sankey's not an average person.
  • He also puts his face behind his comments, notice.
  • But there are a lot of average people that are benefiting from this system right now.
  • And those average people scare easily.
  • And I got scared last week.
  • Greg Sankey is speaking what hundreds and hundreds of them are feeling behind the scenes.
  • So you may not think you were heard last week.
  • I told you you were heard.
  • He's confirming you were heard.
  • And that's one publicly saying what a lot of them have said privately.
  • Again, I have spoken to them off the record.
  • They know it.
  • They know it.
  • So if you wanna sleep a little easier tonight, at least know that you were heard.
