It feels odd. Watching employees of the State of Michigan play football against employees of the State of Texas. Doesn't sound much fun does it? The day is early but all the lead-up to this seems out of place, out of time.
The old conference structure is gone. Replaced by one that will not last nearly as long as the one it replaced.
Money has a way of pushing things around. It disrupts, in both good ways and bad. The employees will make demands. The marketplace will make demands. The state will make concessions, for a time.
Will we still be able to pretend this is "best for the student-athelete"? Probably not.
Then it will blow up.
