I saw someone stating that the money will be split somewhere between 50/50 and 70/30 between all conferences and the participants.

After getting over the initial shock that everyone is agreeing to play nice, I then started to think conferences were a bad way to distribute this portion of the check.

If a large percentage of the distribution is to be handed out equally, then I think it should be paid to each school individually. That way all teams get the same check no matter if they are in a 14 team conference or an 8 team one.

The other thing I think is that the distribution should be based on years in the FBS. I think that it should be acknowledged that the system has earned it's value in the popularity gained over years of playing FBS football so a move up from FCS should have to take some time to be fully vested in it. I think something like 20 years to become fully vested is reasonable. Some teams have been investing in football for over 100 years now.

I think this could attempt to slow down a sudden influx of FCS teams that might occur if you could move up and immediately get a full share of the playoff money.
