The NCAA Transformation Committee's next significant date is Oct 26 when the DI Board of Directors meets.

I'm perusing their latest minutes and trying to read the tea leaves.

I think they're trying to toughen up what being "Division I" means, but any substantive action they take will surely gore somebody's ox and will be challenged. 

Times like this I do miss "SiouxVolley". He spoke "NCAA" and "administrator" much better than I do.

Reconsider and update Football Bowl Subdivision membership requirements to determine the appropriateness of maintaining the current attendance standard while focusing on other elements that more directly link the student-athlete experience to expectations for FBS membership criteria. This review should be established by the Division I Board of Directors, involve experts and key leaders from the FBS membership and focus on establishing more effective distinctions between the football subdivision.

Translating the bold and underlined: The easily dodged "15k attendance rule" could be gone soon. 

The NCAA might be close to getting this one right*: It's not butts in seats, it's "student-athlete experience". Now what those "expectations for FBS" are for the "student-athlete experience" is a whole new question. 

And who knows what "effective distinctions between the football subdivision" will end up meaning. 

*I just came close to saying something nice about the NCAA. I'm going to shower.
