Michael is absolutely correct in his prediction. Read the article that was linked on one of yesterday's posts about what is being proposed by the NCAA to loosen all restrictions on cash going to schools that will be the new autonomous group, i.e., the biggest, richest schools, so that they can directly pay players instead of going through NIL collectives to do it. This will free about 25-30 schools to conduct an even bigger arms race than currently exists. School on the edge or outside that circle will be forced to compete at a lesser level.
If the proposal which Charlie Baker is putting before the NCAA comes to fruition, OSU will be on the wrong end of that deal and the gap between haves and have nots will widen.
There is no longer a CW game, it's a sham, body bag, payday game and will be a humiliating reminder of the dirty deeds done dirt cheap by Phil's Wallet Inc.
The Beavs best hope is that realignment gets crazy again in a few years and they get back into a respectable conference that can provide what they need for recruits and revenue.
Respectfully disagree

Come live in reality with the rest of us someday.
