[QUOTE="WVUALLEN, post: 132032779, member: 1112294"] “There are those that aren’t a big public school with 50,000 students and literally hundreds of thousands of alumni. Right now, you have 65 Power 5 schools, soon to be 69 with the new Big 12 members. We’ll see how that works out.” Luck said change has been called for since the 1970s when former Mountaineer football coach Don Nehlen joined with Chuck Neinas’ call for a new system. Remember the College Football Association of 1977, formed to negotiate contracts with TV networks? There was little headway made, but the tension was there and remained. “The CFA didn’t last very long but that was an attempt to sort of wrestle if you will, big time college football away from the governance of the NCAA,” Luck said.
