Imagine if at the end of Back to the Future that Doc comes back and says.
"MARTY! I'VE BEEN TO THE FUTURE!
YOU'RE NOT GONNA BELIEVE IT!
INDIANA WINS A NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!"
"So?"
"IN FOOTBALL!"
Marty replies as such even after his adventure in the 1950s.
"...you're full of ****, Doc."

So 2052 looks like the year 20-30 programs "break away" to jerk off with more money. If not for Texas and maybe Wisconsin that's what the projection is showing.
Michigan next year is a bold prediction.
Think Penn St. will give Campbell until '35 to reach the promised land?

He can at least yappy yappy that long before they figure out ... hey, he's bullsh*ting us isn't he!
By then most of the SEC/B1G teams will have formed a super league, so could be possible!
Lol Boise, Colorado State, Wazzu. Hilarious.
So for in the NIL era do you think it's created more, or less parity?
I'd argue more parity, but we're still at too small of a sample size and I'd like to see it play out a few more years.
Evidence for more parity: 4 different NCAA champs in the last 4 years. Indiana winning a title. Teams like Arizona State, Texas Tech, Vanderbilt, SMU and Ole Miss making the playoffs out of P4 conferences. Different teams getting into the P4 conference championship games over the last 2-3 years and different teams winning those leagues.
Evidence for less parity: The Big Ten and SEC are dominating the CFP (with the exception of Miami). There may be more parity in those leagues, but they are still separating from everyone else.

Imagine a Super League departs the NCAA.
Most of the Big Ten and SEC (even if not all) plus a few of the marquis programs from the Big 12 (Tech, BYU, maybe Kansas, etc.) and ACC (definitely Clemson, Florida St., and The U) are gone.
The remnants of the P4 try to pick up the pieces and backfill with the best of the G5 at that point plus probably some of the FCS powers to try and make the thing go 'round.
Under that circumstance... I could see it for those schools.
Not great for Iowa St. and the Big 12 but following through on the thought experiment here!
Nope. This is with Campbell fired many years before and his return home back to Toledo.
Wonder if CMC will still be coaching at Penn State when they win in 2035???
JFC I'll be 102 when ISU wins! At least I can die happy then!
yep - that was my thought as well but then I realized if that happened then this is very accurate cause about 10 years after the split the rest of the teams would definitely be ready to kick Texas out.
