    Conflicts of College Conference Realignment: Pursuing Revenue, Preserving Tradition, and Assessing the Future Vadim Kogan Stephen A. Greyser Working Paper 14-073 February 18, 2014 Copyright © 2014 by Vadim Kogan and Stephen A. Greyser Working papers are in draft form. This working paper is distributed for purposes of comment and discussion only. It may not be reproduced without permission of the copyright holder. Copies of working papers are available from the author. Conflicts of College Conference Realignment: Pursuing Revenue, Preserving Tradition, and Assessing the Future Vadim Kogan and Stephen A. Greyser February 18, 2014 Over the past two years, conference realignment has taken a front seat in the college sports landscape. Economic incentives were too attractive to overlook for some universities. College football programs across the country have a lot at stake, because for many, football is an integral component of their community’s, as well as their university’s, culture. With conference realignment already being discussed extensively in the college sports arena as well as in the media, what should these universities do? Passively waiting to see what happens to one’s conference is risky, as it may be on the verge of collapse – taking your program with it. On the other hand, boldly applying to a different conference is not a safe bet either, as the future of other conferences may be uncertain. The conflicts between the economic incentives of the program and the emotional desires of sports fans, alumni, and athletes themselves are at the crossroads of these realignment decisions. The economic benefits of joining a stronger conference are vast.
