  1. This all makes sense from one side of the fence. But you have to remember that the Linear Carriers have a stake in fact they want their contract fulfilled. If your FSU/Clemson/Miami you might be able to break your GOR with the conference. But the linear carrier who is currently broadcasting FSU/Clemson/Miami content, at a bargain basement price, does NOT want to lose that deal. If FSU/Clemson/Miami end up in the SEC, B1G or even the BIG14, those schools would get paid more money, The current linear carriers wouldn't want to pay FSU/Clemson/Miami more just because they changed conferences.
  2. This thread should have been called "Blaming Texas Not Going Away"
  3. Stanford is really good in lots of sports. Baseball, womenz Basketball, and are UT'S biggest rival in swimming. It's to dang bad that they deliver so few eyeballs. If they did they make a great competitor. SDSU delivers better ratings than Stanford. And F' CAL.
  4. Serious question: Who's your 6th team? CAL, STAN, OST, WST, SDSU, FRENSO.
  5. The model for the BIG18 works incredibly well, though eighteen probably wouldn't work elsewhere. In the B18, You would have three regions of 6 teams. The West: BYU, UU, UO, UW, UA, AST. The North: Kansas, KST, ISU, Cincy, WVU, CU. The South: Tech, OST, TCU, BU, UH, UCF. So, Annually Tech would play five games in their region and One road game in the west and host one west team AND they'd play one North team at home and one on the road. UO would play their 5 western rivals each season, then host one south team and visit one south team, host one North team and visit one North team. Therefore west of the rockies teams will only have to travel East of the rockies twice a season. West of the Rockies teams will have 2 meaningful games a season in the CTZ while hosting multiple East of the rockies teams. This greatly reduces the old PAC12 teams isolation. During the 6 year term of the current media rights deal, Tech would play each west school at home once and on the road once and each North school at home once and on the road once.
  6. OST's been floating the rumor that they are next. Kinda like the ugly fat chick acting like the Quarterback is gonna take her to the Homecoming Dance. They are the short white dude at Rucker Park trying to get on the court.
  7. Reminds me of Carl Sagan who couldn't just talk about nuclear war. He had to talk about nuclear winter. Really! We just blew up the entire planet and killed 99% of everything and all Carl Sagan wants to know is, "What's the weather going to be like?". What a Grandpa thing to be on your mind after a nuclear holocaust. And here we are talking about conference realignment when we may get nuked tomorrow. WHERE ARE OUR PRIORITIES?
  8. I posted this before today's surge in the CU story line. But it's it how I picture the PACX schools looking at the deal Klownkov gave them. 362349033_6488135051307461_2879093333365916232_n.mp4.47cd2204d11a5747e0df9f5c0be6c5c0.mp4

  10. First look at the new PACX Contract. 362349033_6488135051307461_2879093333365916232_n.mp4

  12. That Wilner March 21 reference is great, especially the part about, 'they need to go early, things could get worse'. Like you could lose USC & UCLA. Or while you're slow walking your negotiations the Big12 gets their deal done which locked up some of the TV slots that you were hoping for or you find out that you viewership claims were inflated meaning A. Your conference value is a little less than you claimed. B. You owe Comcast $50mill. A lot has happened since 03-21.
  13. 1. They literally have a $100,000,000 tied up in it. 2. It actually functions really well and looks good. 3. They have a lot of tie ins. Like it comes with some cable packages and its free on a lot of cell phone plans. 4. Streaming really will be a big thing someday and the PACX will rue the day if they torch it.
  14. So IF Apple is offering an All or Nothing deal, it must be pretty good. Like a 6 year 1.8bill offer and maybe some cash for the PACX streaming system and studios. A lack of exposure won't be the only real problem. If Apple is buying all the rights, then they will want all the scheduling autonomy. If you're Apple and you made the bid that held the PACX together then you're going to tell the schools what time their game is and on what day they're playing. Thursday, Friday, Saturday- noon, afternoon, late game. Apple will be your overlord. Conference contracts usually guarantee that even the worst school with the worst TV footprint will still get a couple of good slots each season. Apple is going to say, "If you want our money, you'll accept our scheduling'.

  16. Friday Klownkov Made it sound like the PACX members Had already signed away their GOR. He walked that back a little bit today. He really pissed CU off Friday. https://247sports.com/article/pac-12-commissioner-george-kliavkoff-merton-hanks-partner-with-big-12-brett-yormark-usc-ucla-oregon-213140824/
  17. Is his emphasis on "The Grant of Rights has already been negotiated" a warning to CU and others that you are stuck with whatever deal I give you?
  18. https://pac-12.com/live Link does work and its free
  19. So I've thought the PAC12 was paying more and they haven't been. Is that what I am seeing here?
  20. Handing the schools an update, 24 hours before they have to go on camera is a bum ass move. It's done in politics all the time. It comes across more as an arm twisting ultimatum than as great package that was worth the wait.
  21. So the John Canzano tweet that say SDSU still in play is already wrong. Surly Analytics Inc rates the shelf life of John Canzano tweets at exactly 48.2 hours. So that tweet was below the norm.
  22. All true, there's a reason they were put in BIG12 time out for 25 years. I think there will P5 shake up by 2036, UH has to prove they belong or they will be left out again.
  23. Here is a serious question, Can the Pacx kick out cal and replace them with san diego state. And that sure says a lot about my opinion of Cal That I think San Diego state is a step up.
