Is a Super League Coming for College Football? Jimmy Haslam helped conceptualize the CSFL. The College Student Football League would be split into two tiers, with different divisions based on geography. The top 72 programs would be split into 12 six-team divisions, with the remaining 64 spread across eight divisions in a lower tier. Teams in the top tier would play 13 games, with the best performers in one season receiving the toughest opponents the next. The CSFL would implement a salary cap and floor for teams as well as pay scales for athletes’ endorsement earnings based on their position and on-field usage. It would also implement stricter guidelines for transfers, limiting athletes to two transfers within a five-year eligibility window. Athletes would collectively bargain with the league through a players’ association, the format of which would depend on whether athletes are reclassified as employees, a question that is currently at issue in federal court and before the National Labor Relations Board. Revenue generated by the CSFL wouldn’t be split evenly among members; 94% would go to the 72 teams in the top tier, with the programs that drive the most viewers and win the most games receiving larger shares. The remaining 6% would go to the 64 teams in the lower tier.

There's a reason people call Steve French "The Minister of Culture"
