Consider this scenario:
Step 1) Establish SEC and Big Ten as the Only Two conferences that matter. Done!
Step 2) Sign incredibly large media deal. Next.
Step 3) Pay the best college age players to play for your conference. In progress.
Step 4) Rake in the dough. Inevitable.
Now, where in here does it say that either of the Only Two conferences need to expand and take in more teams to accomplish this? They are already the Only Two. They don't need any more teams.
It's like the Warriors don't need Kevin Durant. It's not that Durant isn't good. It's that they can be champions without him.
