Cody Campbell has the SEC and Big Ten worried, and now we have proof.
In this video, I break down the backlash to Campbell’s Saving College Sports initiative after the SEC and Big Ten commissioned a white paper from FTI Consulting to counter his ideas. Campbell’s proposal includes major changes to college athletics, including a new voluntary governing organization with enforcement power, a single national NIL standard, spending and cost controls, and changes to the Sports Broadcasting Act of 1961 that would allow schools to pool college football media rights and sell them together.
I explain what Campbell is pushing, why SEC and Big Ten leaders are fighting it, and why the arguments in the commissioned paper are misleading—especially when it comes to the history of TV rights, the College Football Association model from the 1980s, and how the modern streaming landscape (Amazon, Netflix, and more) could change the value of packaged college football inventory. We also get into the central issue behind this battle: whether the current fragmented system is protecting SEC and Big Ten revenue at the expense of everyone else, including the future of Olympic sports and women’s sports at smaller schools.
