Templitis! When you stagnate near or at the bottom for a good number of years it is nearly (if not entirely) impossible to climb up to average (or above) in a real meaningful way. Temple left the Big East and they are doing well...is it against lesser competition...yes. But somewhere you have to find a place to get your legs under you and learn how to win. Kentucky, Vanderbilt, Indiana, Northwestern, Duke, BC, Iowa State, Kansas, and Colorado (and even Rutgers, Syracuse, Purdue, Wake Forest, and UCLA) would all benefit from moving to non-FBS conferences for a few years to refocus, gain momentum, and learn how to win!
Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves.
If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.
