The p5 will never give up any advantages that they have now, this I think we can all agree on
The p5 doesn’t want a complete split in fear of losing recruits and tv eyeballs and tv money to a stand alone league That should be on equal scholarships and such
The g5 tv market has room to grow
The g5 will need their own tv package of course, it will be smaller at first but will increase as fan bases grow

I dont think a split is the answer.

Every version of the BCS/CFP has featured an improvement in the standing of the G5. The G5 were flat out not part of the original "Bowl Coalition". They were not part of the more developed BCS that later came into being. A situation much like the UCF situation (Tulane) made enough of an impact that a movement began to reform the BCS. That created the "BCS Buster" rules that gave some conditional access to "non-AQ" schools that reached certain rankings.

Despite these reforms--many years, no non-AQ qualified for a BCS slot. In the CFP the performance requirements were removed so that EVERY year the top G5 champ participates in a CFP Bowl.


Basically, the next step is automatic inclusion of the top G5 in the actual playoff. I think that happens when the CFP expands to 8.

The G5 just needs to continue building their fan bases and wait for this CFP deal to end.

I don't want a split. I think it is bad for both parties. But I do want a system where every player can get a National Championship based on winning all of their games, no matter how unlikely it may be for them to actually do it.
