We've all had opinions on the NCAA and its purpose. I think this letter says a lot and sends a very clear message.

The NCAA has to go.

The fundamental problem is the NCAA covers a huge numbers of schools and athletes for extra-curricular activities, and a tiny fraction of these activities generate billions in revenue.

the NCAA has 10 years left max when it comes to P4 big-time football.

SEC & B1G are going to swallow up what's worth taking of the B12 and ACC and then break away from the NCAA and form their own super-league with a governing body and commissioner. it'll be like an NFL-light and it can't get here fast enough if you ask me.

That was only Page 1.  Pages 2 and 3 are even better. 

I couldn't say if she's telling the truth about everything there, but if so, it's a 3-page bitch slap in writing to the weasels.

A breakaway might happen.  If it does, it'll only be football.

The NCAA will still be around to govern the other 93.87% of collegiate athletic interactions.

So... yeah.

agreed. it'll only be football because: football is king and generates 99.9% of all the revenue in college sports.

SEC & B1G schools just have way too much money at stake when it comes to football to leave shit to chance with NCAA.

Sure.

And whatever governing body is put in place, will still have the exact same charter as the NCAA.  Because there still must be rules, and those rules are going to look largely the same no matter who is officially in charge.

the new governing body will basically be the bitch boy of the schools, the way that Roger Goodell is the bitch boy of the NFL owners.

Honestly, the NCAA's impotence is making it hard for me to enjoy the sport.

On the other hand, being a "bitch boy" doesn't really scream out "competence" now does it?

The assumption here is that both of the big conferences, and all member schools of the big conferences, are going to be aligned in their desires for what the new governing body will mandate and enforce.

There is absolutely zero chance of the above, being true.

I'm legitimately curious about what, specifically, is bothering you this much about the NCAA's governance?
