stab at what that might look like using the teams on my list in the OP:

East: Clemson, Florida State, Va Tech, NC State, West Virginia, Miami, North Carolina

West: USC, UCLA, Washington, BYU, Oregon, Arizona State, Colorado, Arizona, Cal, Stanford

Everybody else gets cut.

With the Big Ten, SEC, and ND, that's 48. Any other cuts would have to come from the Big Ten and SEC.

too many have-nots on that list

and there are even some "haves" that people wouldn't normally think of as haves (like Michigan State from the previous example, but also some other schools).

Also, how will they solve the issues for bringing other sports? Will there be a way for teams to "move up" from the lower division? Will they stay with the NCAA or break away?
