I was one who used to think that the FCS playoffs was worth it. Yet, after examining the fiscals/....it's not worth it. HBCUs would be better scheduling more classics in cities with high concentration of graduates and creating a potential bowl series based on the classics.

Next time there is a FCS playoff game look at the crowd.
 
Lol @ him hearing about the playoff pay format and thinking it's breaking news. No one is getting rich off the playoffs, including the NCAA. Here's an old but relevant article about schools moving up to FBS from FCS.


A slightly newer article.


The teams that left FCS to play in the Sunbelt or any other conference didn't do so because of their dislike for the playoffs. They did it because there's more money to be made at the FBS level. Period and point blank. TV contracts are king and it's easier to make those deals and have a seat at the table if you're in the FBS than the FCS. Whether you're a playoff or bowl supporter the bottom line should be how does it help us improve our product on the field, whether it be through increased revenue or an increased valuation of your brand.
