  1. Last fall the PAC had an offer from ESPN for $30 million each.
  2. Perhaps that it will now be even harder to get enough "dissolve the conference" votes for them to ever get out for free.
  3. LOL
  4. I wouldn't be surprised if it's earlier than that. Do they need to? They've got several footholds in Texas, no one else is really worth it, they have plenty of members...
  5. Again, that is not how that works. Nor can Stanford and Cal just "wink wink" some research dollars NCSU's way.
  6. That's not how that works
  7. I don't disagree on anything you've said here. As a Cal fan, I'm glad to see them get a home - no matter how crazy or perhaps temporary, fully acknowledging the ACC could crumble in the next 5 years. But going to the ACC with Stanford is better than being left to the MWC. I personally would have been happy seeing Cal and Stanford join the 4C schools in the Big XII, but I don't think that arrangement had interest from either side. Cal fans were talking about it some, but I don't know to what degree Cal admin entertained it. I've seen no Big XII fans that would have been in favor. I'm just glad this is done. Now I can spend the weekend drunk and enjoying the games instead of refreshing webpages looking for updates.
  8. The UNC board is advisory. The president has the vote.
  9. Well, 1) I'm glad to see Cal get in, and 2) I'm glad to see Cal and Stanford can continue playing as conference foes, but 3) Seriously, this is so stupid
  10. I'm 99% sure that number was Canzano completely not understanding something. Like he somehow thought that the remaining teams would collect all revenues for the year that would normally be distributed.
  11. Another
  12. Hahahaha YESSSSSS
  13. Ya so I looked it up, that 2001 Holiday Bowl is what I was thinking of. 27 point fourth quarter. Craziness.
  14. No worries/ all good
  15. What does this sentence even mean? No, you have absolutely never seen me being an "apologist" / Briles support/ etc.
  16. I'm sure this has been discussed at length somewhere on Surly/ Shaggy, but I really liked Applewhite. My dad was a longhorn fan, so I grew up seeing a lot of UT games via him. Correct me if I'm wrong but y'all had some bowl game where either Simms started and was pulled or Simms had just been the starter for several games beforehand, but Applewhite came in and engineered some epic fucking comeback. Fuzzy but I recall it being incredible at the time. Maybe memory is lying to me.
  17. That's literally the entirety of what I was saying, just worded simpler. So you didn't mind what I said but it was the tone that bothered ya 😆
  18. Hmmm, did I act like any of my schools "matter?" Getting your panties in a twist over some factual information is quite aggy-esque though. You're succeeding.
  19. It's ridiculous that I'm hoping Cal gets into the ATLANTIC Coast Conference.
  20. Ya fair enough but at some point the right coaching hire will be made. From the outside it seems UT has suffered from 1) always recruiting the highest stars and not necessarily the best fits, and 2) gameday coaching errors from multiple coaches.
  21. I think - but am by no means sure - that Clemson used to have different colors (way back in the day), but something about how the old uniforms faded made them switch to what the faded ones looked like. I only remember this because previously I'd wondered how the hell someone ever chose orange and purple as their color combo.
  22. Obviously a good avenue to choose. I'm curious to see how NIL goes. Before NIL, being honest, I think UT would be somewhat screwed in the SEC (not completely, but I'm sure we'd both agree there are plenty of SEC programs who will cheat through the nose). NIL - as long as it stays somewhat unregulated - I think could level a lot of that playing field, because certainly UT has boosters that can compete with anyone.
  23. May be - that was a great team. As a neutral observer, the Tech game that year was amazing. But as a neutral fan, watching Tech proceed to get skull-fucked by OU shortly thereafter was also hilarious.
