This whole mess will sooner rather than later

wind up in one of two places or both: Congress and/or the Supreme Court.

Too much money involved; too many politicians involved with too many P5 brands.

I'm thinking an eventual north, south, east, west model of 16 to 20 member schools each; the rest in a tiers 2, 3, maybe 4 level, with each having its own national playoffs.

AND a congressional or court ordered even payoff of tv rights to each P4. If it goes to a 20-team plan, then each division would have to accept one or more schools not in the current P5's.

For example, a South Division may consist of Arkansas, LSU, LA Tech, Tulane, Ole Miss, Miss State, Bama, Auburn, FSU, Miami, Florida, UCF, USF, UGA, GT, Carolina, Clemson, Tennessee, Vanderbilt, and Memphis. East Division: UNC, NC State, Wake, Duke, East Caro, WCU, VT, UVA, Richmond, WVU, Marshall, MD, Rutgers, UConn, BC, Syracuse, Navy, Penn State, Pitt, and UMass. North Division: Ohio State, Cincinnati, Akron, Michigan. Michigan State, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Iowa State, Illinois, ND, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisville, Missouri, Kansas, K State, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Oklahoma State. West Division: Texas, TAMU, TCU, Baylor, Texas Tech, Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, Boise State, Washington, Washington State, Oregon, Oregon State, UCLA, Southern Cal, Stanford, California, San Diego, Utah, and Hawaii.

Others would participate in Levels 2, 3, maybe 4, divided geographically.

Each of the top P4's would have a playoff for its conference title: north, south, east, west divisions. The four would play for the national title on a rotating pattern.
