1. The NCAA in 2035
By: Mr. Dunlap

2. We have already seen during the past few years, change is coming with the NCAA.
Football is leading the way.
Conferences all want to have a conference championship game, which can bring in an extra $15-20 million for the conference.
The Power 5 conferences have had all the power and in the future with this expansion and realignment, they will have even more.
There will be 4 super conferences.
The last 4 years there was a 4 team playoff – but that too will change
Why we are here?
