NCAA poised to create separate voting bloc for SEC, Big Ten, ACC, Pac-12, Big 12

Even not thinking about the actual issues this just *feels* bad.

As it currently stands, there is a gap ranging from a few hundred dollars to several thousand dollars for most athletes between what their scholarship covers and the actual cost of attending college. Power conference leaders have tried for two years to pass legislation to increase athlete compensation, but have been outvoted by schools with less revenue to share.
If the big schools have their own voting bloc, that legislation should pass easily.
They ALREADY pretty much own the voting bloc...
