The conference has outlived its usefulness. It is watered down. It used to mean something to be offensive lineman of the year in that thing. Now those awards are given to two or three different kids per year. Killed the meaning of it. Most of the teams dodge a couple of the others in the regular season, so there is no true champion. It's just silly.

I agree with most of what you are selling yogi. My question to you is why be in the conference? Why not have your own grid and keep your money and let them have the conference and give 14 different trophies for off linemen? What are the big advantages of being in the conference? What exactly do they do for the members besides a post season trophy? It use to be if you were in the conference you pretty much had your schedule set but that is a thing of the past. My question would be what is the benefit of it?
