Definitely need to know more about this consideration/proposal. Who is going to really benefit. Is it the NCAA, AD & College Presidents, ESPN, Fox and other broadcasters, advertisers for bigger games and venues? I'm not so inclined to believe the NCAA is doing this out of the kindness of their "little Grinch-like hearts". My initial thought was college is very, very expensive so why would I want to pay more.

"According to data from the National Center for Education Statistics, the total cost of attending a four-year college in the U.S. has increased significantly over the last 40 years, rising from around $10,631 to approximately $29,033, representing a substantial increase of over 170% when adjusted for inflation." https://educationdata.org/aver...t-of-college-by-year

So, why now and how would this work for the benefit of all student athletes. As always, JMO.
