It’s Not Over Till It’s Over

In this episode: Kent talks college athletics, focusing on the ongoing process of college football conference realignment. He recalls that before the mid-1990s, conferences were primarily aligned geographically, encouraging healthy, spirited rivalries and robust attendance. Kent ponders the forces driving realignment, its widespread impacts, and various scenarios that could result. Regardless of how it pans out, he says, realignment’s effects on students and fans have been ignored from the get-go.
