It is not personal for me. I have the Gophers who are safely ensconced in the B1G in a major market like Minneapolis. They will be there at the end of the day. Personally, I think all markets that do not have an NFL team are at risk. The same media types who are driving the college sports bus basically want to match the financial return of pro sports. That means a lot fewer teams so lower costs to cover the games with smaller conference / team payouts. 32 NFL teams = 32 college teams in the largest markets. That is what major media wants. Apparently, what they want they get. This is totally impersonal, just realistic. I wonder if the Ducks make the cut. I doubt it, to be honest, once Phil is gone to protect them
