Conference realignment is killing a lot of what makes (made?) college sports special, but the money always wins (College Basketball 07/06) Jul 06, 2022

Show notes

How will big conference realignment alter the college basketball landscape? Gary Parrish and Matt Norlander discuss that and the potential ramifications. Norlander goes off on how these moves are killing the fabric that made college sports so alluring to millions to begin with, while Parrish posits that what might be best for the Pac-12 is to merge with the Big 12, ditch a few universities, and create a new 16-team conference. Would that league come close to the prestige of the new Big Ten and SEC?
