I think North and South Dakota State should be added as well. They have been giving teams a hard time for years now. If they get up to 24 teams, the top 8, middle 8, and bottom 8 can play each other in 7 conference games. get up to 9 by playing one of each depending on where they place in those divisions.

Crazy, crazy, I know. But I think crazy ideas are needed in order to survive.

Yes, the "pan et circi" factor. Make it entertaining; let a champion emerge.

So tired of Tommy Trojan being our "Champion."

What problem?

Fuck it! Why not! I actually think this idea of 24 and splitting into 3 tiered regulated leagues is a good one.

Then we could even have a reverse Ted Lasso show for Apple TV where an out of his element and washed up British football coach comes to the US to coach a down on their luck New Mexico squad that has been regulated in the PMWC.

We can call it Avery Smith.

It would be nice if it were all real.

On a serious note, if we can't get the big markets or whatever, then we need the quality football. The product on the field must at least be as good as the XII. I think that is possible for certain. With an entertaining product, we can take less now, and bet on the future.
