'Super League' Proposal Aims to Revolutionize College Football

A group of college presidents and NFL insiders propose a new league structure to replace the NCAA, sparking debate and skepticism.

A group of college presidents, NFL insiders, and top sports executives, collectively known as 'College Sports Tomorrow' (CST), is pushing for a 'Super League' to replace the NCAA and College Football Playoff.
The proposed Super League would feature a two-tier system with the top 70 programs from the five former major conferences, plus Notre Dame and SMU, as permanent members.
The new league would introduce promotion and relegation, a playoff system without a selection committee, and a players' union to negotiate NIL, transfer, and salary structures.
Critics argue the plan could undermine the uniqueness of college football and faces resistance from major conferences and TV networks, which have long-term media rights deals.
Despite skepticism, CST believes the Super League could address legal challenges, NIL and transfer issues, and ensure the long-term sustainability of college football.
