for 2024 UFL season
i will give the first game or two a watch, but im not expecting much.
they had everything they needed to make it work, but instead, they kept only the bad things from each league, such as disbanding the other 8 teams they needed just to make it watchable.
i am expecting it to barely make 1 year before bankruptsy at best.
only having 8 teams means it will never work no matter what they do

I’m not sure what other things you’re speaking of when you say they “only kept the bad things from each league”, but the idea that only having 8 teams is a bad thing is wrong.
That will give them four nationally broadcast games per week. I’m not sure how long the season is, but they can easily work out 10 or 14 game schedules with that number. The quality of play should be better as they aren’t as deep into the player pool.
Last season while each USFL team had a city attached, they basically played at hub sites. This year teams will play in the home cities.
If the league does well, then they can expand to ten or 12 teams going forward.

The UFL needs to have players that are recognizable names at least regionally.
Maybe you convince players like a Tommy DeVito of the Giants and Tyson Bagent from the Bears to play in the UFL for a while and hone their skills instead of pressing them in the NFL before they are ready.
One of the things that made the old USFL watchable in the 80s was that there were some recognizable names. Even the first edition of the XFL 20+ years ago had guys like Tommy Maddox trying to audition to get back in the NFL
