[NU Sports] Merger: Big East & BIg 12

[Mike Nolan]

> I was pondering the effect of the potential realignments to all of college FB, not just to NU.  The B1G will probably come out of it OK.

I agree that the B1G should do well, no matter what N*D* decides to do.  

And the impact probably isn't as big as it seems.  There are around 117 schools 
in the FBS subdivision, this realignment wave is likely to involve no more
than 20% of them, probably less, and it will have little impact on the 
FCS subdivision and even less on Divisions II and III.
