ATLANTA — Conference realignment means more work, less academic time for unpaid athletes. The callous disregard for the welfare of athletes by college sports leaders who are chasing money has become too much even for Missouri football coach Eli Drinkwitz.

PITTSBURGH — What a shame to see the conference formerly known as the Pac-12 (and Pac-10, and Pac-8, and Pacific Coast Conference) withering away on life support on account of college football's latest money-fueled implosion. It's not even a six Pac anymore. It's the Pac-4. Obituaries roll in by the day, commemorating the 108-year-old league that gave us too many sports luminaries to count, ...
