Jon had this 100% correct. Of the 350 or so Div 1 basketball schools only a handful will be able to pay what will become necessary to compete. When the vast majority are relegated to a new Div 1A will the national fan interest be continued for the handful of schools in the 2 to 4 new super conferences. Will the fans of the existing Mid America or OVC, etc. really give a crap about Div 1? The only thing that will remain to drive that interest is gambling
