I'll give him credit for trying to find a solution...

thats more than alot of folks, but come on. The P5 schools would lose so much money from their athletic budgets by doing that. They'd be on the outs when it comes to TV deals and quality players would quit going to those schools. Some of those 'FCAA" schools that are name brands would become nothing more than a 1-AA or decent mid-major at best.
Its doubtful Notre Dame could sustain a TV contract with a major network long term unless they schedule alot of the name brands they currently play. However, they'd get hammered on the scoreboard as they wouldn't be getting top talent anymore.
After 5 years they'd be better served scheduling Holy Cross than Michigan.

"I came off the field against Alabama thinking, ‘We’ve got a lot of work to do here.’ I didn’t feel that way at all in this game. Clemson is an exceptional team. They are very good. And they played that way. But I didn’t see a significant talent differential. I didn’t see a program differential in terms of strength and conditioning, or preparedness. I thought we had units on the field that were the better of the two in some positions, some areas."

I don't see UVA going that route.

Looks like to me he's conceded that ND cannot compete with the Big Boys so they'll pick their own association where they have the most resources and weak competition.

His idea makes sense.

But, it won't work. You can't have half the schools being the minor league for the NBA and NFL and the other half being schools who value a college education.
We have that now. It's called Power Five and Service Academies.
As long as the NCAA is eagerly and willingly serving as the minor leagues, there is no solution other than to allow the kids to sign contracts with agents and become pros.
But, it will end up being very profitable for the top 25 or so teams in the NCAA. They will be the ones who get all the guys who will be signing contracts with agents, and the others will be left behind.
I can see the day where the top 50 or so teams will break away and form their own group and the rest of the schools essentially becoming what the FCS is now. Why should Alabama and Florida share all that money with Vandy and MS ST? Why should Clemson and FSU share all that money with Wake and Cuse?
If the goal is to make as much money as possible, just like all the other pro leagues, then having 130 teams sharing revenue is not a good model. There is a reason there are only 32 teams in the NFL.

Maybe not his exact idea, but I think there is some merit to

what he's proposing. I would rather watch college kids play football than a bunch of semi-pros. I know I'm in the minority, but hey that's ok.
