yes I was aware of that, but they suspect that the ASU presidents and an ASU professor convinced everyone else that the PAC 12 was worth $50 million

well to be fair the PAC 12 deal was 100% streaming with Apple and Oregon and Washington said "no fucking way" and bolted once the Big 10 agreed to paying them each $31 million to start with a $1 million per year escalator for the life of the current deal after that the 4 corners had a Big 12 offer and CU had already taken it, but the Apple deal was still there and the 9 were going to take it until Oregon and UW got the call in addition there was a 4 partner deal with ESPN, Fox, CBS for a little bit of basketball, and Amazon for about $23 million, but Amazon backed out after CU left once Oregon and UW were gone and the remaining 3 of the 4 corners saw they were fucked there was a call to the Big 12 and then Fox agreed to give a pro rata share of TV money for all 4 of the 4 corners and they were gone leaving the PAC 4 only ESPN was on the hook for their $20 million of the Big 12 TV deal for up to 4 "P5" schools Fox had not agreed to anyone being added for their $11.6 million share even just CU......but Fox agreed to cover that for all 4 of the 4 corners so the PAC 12 $25 million from Apple fell apart because the Big 10 agreed to give Oregon and UW $31 million each with an annual bump there was never really a chance to turn the Apple deal down.....though I would think that if the PAC 12 did not fuck around so long to find out if they could get a little more money from anywhere else they could have wrapped that Apple deal up a couple of weeks before Colorado left.....but I also imagine that Oregon and UW were slow rolling things, the ASU president was in love with his own voice, CU was getting old feet and working the Big 12 to not get a deal that made them look like a chump and Stanford and Cal were thinking they were worth a fuck to anyone and they would have a soft landing somewhere.....so they just pushed off Apple until the Big 10 made enough of a deal that Oregon and UW could accept being second class citizens in the Big 10 and jumped and CU had already seen what was up and jumped

well the ACC in May was about $40 million so it looks like about $12 million and growing about $300,000 to $500,000 per year depending on ACC revenue growth yea when one looks at research funding for Nebraska and other teams that have moved conferences and compares it to teams that did not and even to teams outside the P5 there is really no correlation at all to conference affiliation and the growth or increase in research funding VVVV........OU and Georgia would like to talk to you about an anti-trust lawsuit

Cincinnati is not the Big 12 has Kansas, CU, AU, ASU, Utah.....ISU was, but their administration and their state fucked up and let them down

ASU is in the club now and they have to have the hottest girls in the AAU perhaps with the exception of Texas

I personally thought that a rebuilt PAC with: SMU, SDSU, Rice, Tulane, Army, Navy, Air Force, and CSU was their best option that is a really strong set of academics there, you do have Navy and Army across the country, but that is more their issue than anyone in the PAC 4, that is a national following with San Diego being appealing for Navy, you get all 3 Academies together, and you have some "markets" even if the teams in them are not really delivering them I think looking at a 5 or 6 year contract to wait out further developments would have made that work for the PAC 4.....as of now I am not confident that the ACC will fall apart after all Big Bad Texas did not break the Big 12 GOR along with OU so who the fuck thinks that FSU and Clemson will get it done with a very similar GOR even then there are still exit fees in place for the ACC members that go beyond the GOR (the Big 12 goes to 2111) so if something breaks the GOR somehow and Stanford and Cal want to jump.....well they are still on the hook for exit fees after taking pretty much shit money in the ACC in addition no matter what people thought the Big 10 was pretty clearly not at all interested and I do not think the Big 12 wanted the headaches of Cal and Stanford (plus the other 4 that had blindly followed Stanford to a PAC collapse) and I do not think Stanford and Cal wanted it either so you have Stanford and Cal hoping that FSU and Clemson can do what Texas and OU could not and then still having to pay a large exit fee to the ACC and that is on the hopes that their athletics do not completely fall apart in the ACC and that the Big 10 or someone else that never wanted them now or that they did not want will suddenly look good to them or invite them seems like a terrible risk and a really poorly thought out plan

that is correct I did forget that.....I would bet that "word on the street" is that is going to be $10 million now 🤣 UCLA is getting royally fucked in that deal I believe it will be a reverse merger of the PAC and MWC to retain ownership of The Rose Bowl Game (ASU president is on record stating it is half owned by the PAC and Big 10) and The Tournament of Roses does kick money each year to the PAC and Big 10....in addition the two votes "autonomy" for NCAA business for the PAC remain in place there is not a mechanism to reverse that or take it away....and as of now I do not know if there is a way to remove them from getting a larger "P5" share of the football playoff money because that is centered around the pledging of teams to the playoffs vs. holding them to The Rose Bowl contract just like the Big 10, the Big 12 with The Cotton Bowl, and the SEC SEC SEC with the Sugar Bowl plus forfeited NCAA credits are pretty meaningful and there are some "conference reserves" of about $45 million that possibly remain with the conference

yea missing out on a $7 growing to $11 or $12 million distribution in the AAC over the next 10+ years is not going to be hard for SMU to make up for.......10,000 more fans a game at $100 X 6 games a year is $6 million plus they will be pouring the booze and the donors will step up that is the simple part for them

one thing for SMU the AAC TV deal averages $7 million and goes for another 10 years at least because it was extended 2 years when they added 6 schools after Cincy, UCF and UH left so this past year a TOTAL distribution for SMU was about $7 million because the TV money is currently below the $7 million average, but there are NCAA credits and some bowl money and small amounts of football playoff money and UConn exit fees as well as exit fees from the Big 12 members and that $7 million distribution would slowly climb about $500,000 a year for the next 10 years "reporters" are saying that Stanford, Cal, AND SMU all get a cut of football playoff money so $90 million / 18 = $5 million right there and they all get a cut of bowl money and NCAA tournament money.....so if that is true SMU may well break even on this deal or even be slightly ahead depending on how football playoff money grows and is distributed Stanford and Cal are both taking at least a $20 million per year haircut over what they were earning if you look at the PAC 12 paying out about $35 million currently and now Stanford and Cal taking $8 million to start plus that other $7 or $8 million like SMU is said to be getting for a total of $15 to $16 million

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nebraska_Cornhuskers_men's_basketball Much of the team's modest modern-day success came during the fourteen-year tenure of Danny Nee, Nebraska's all-time winningest head coach. Nee led the Cornhuskers to five of their seven NCAA Tournament appearances and six NIT bids, including the 1996 NIT championship, NU's only national postseason title. After Nee was fired in 2000, head coaches Barry Collier, Doc Sadler, and Tim Miles combined to take the Cornhuskers to the NCAA Tournament just once in nineteen seasons. Miles was fired in 2019 and Nebraska hired former Chicago Bulls head coach Fred Hoiberg.[4]

yea this probably benefits SMU more than anyone even those in the ACC that will get more momey SMU is desperate to up their football and with the NIL players do not give a fuck about "athletics budget or how much TV money you get" they give a fuck about how much money they get Stanford and Cal suck ass and will only get worse I see it as almost impossible this works for them in any sport and it is not money that has been holding back any members of the ACC up to this point when P5 money was all pretty equal....yes it is about to get unequal, but as aggy shows up spending does not equal results in a few years when Stanford and Cal gargle cocks and SMU is beating most of the lower half of the ACC in a regular basis and competing with some of the above average programs that will not be a "help" to them it will be a mark against them

no they have won the NIT 😒

UNC and NCState are under the UNC System with a Board of Governors, but each of them has a 13 member Board of Trustees (as do some other schools)

The program's first year of competition was 1897, and NU has since compiled an all-time record of 1,535–1,417, with seven NCAA tournament and sixteen NIT appearances. The team has been coached by Fred Hoiberg since 2019. Nebraska did not make the NCAA Tournament until 1986 and remains the only major-conference program to have never won a tournament game. ^^^^ this seems kinda shitty

I understand how this is suppose to benefit the ACC with them taking money from SMU, Cal, and Stanford and giving it to existing programs, but I think this is going to turn to shit FAST the cable TV money for "in market" is massively overblown, cable TV is losing subs like wildfire, and sooner than later the money will start to take a hit when that happens and then it will get worse when SMU starts to get something.....all about the time that other conferences will be signing new TV deals while the ACC is still stuck in theirs in addition I can't see how Cal and Stanford are going to recruit well I don't think that USC and UCLA will play them at all and who knows about Oregon and UW I think AU, ASU, CU and Utah will either take a pause or they will schedule them in the short term to kick the shit out of them (Utah specifically) and trash their recruiting further I think that AU, ASU, CU, and Utah can get some recruits out of Texas and doing that will especially improve 3 of them and then that improvement will help them more in California I think a few MWC teams might line up to schedule them of they think they can beat the shit out of them and that just drives them further down....so their recruiting pitch will be "get thumped in the OOC or play really shitty teams for a win, have hard as fuck academics, and then play conference teams at home that most of our fans have probably barely heard of (because they do not give a shit about college football) or go across the country to get the shit kicked out of yourself by those teams" yea that will sell

the best part is no one is listening to him they just walk right by and fucking ignore him

I believe this is incorrect.....with the purchase of Dobie Texas has 9,907 beds and they are going to build about 750+ grad student units over near the baseball fields UH is showing 8,397 beds in 2020 and I do not believe they have built any since then that is also counting "partner projects" for UH which is private developers building and I believe UH housing managing them (which is a common arrangement for some state universities).....Texas has some similar things off campus, but I do not believe that UT housing has ever managed them for whatever reason (probably because the developers and Texas cannot agree on a pricing point that would make it "affordable" vs "market rates" even if Texas can get them to agree to a lower overall rate for the affiliation and probably for a shuttle bus hook up)

score went to 24-14 then The Thunderbird Are Go Go Go blocked a punt for a TD and it is 24-21 ASU

TD Southern Utah score is now 21-14 ASU.......would possibly be closer if a long play had not been called back on Southern Utah a little bit back for targeting

damn I fell asleep in the recliner, but the game is back on

this Ashley Adams looks like she has snorted some coke off a strippers ass in her younger years

ASU trying to out Lubbock Lubbock

fucking torture

he had 9 years in the pocket.....looking at the replay that was a PI

BANGED IT THROUGH!!!!
