    Potential DC for Next Year

    I would hope that this is addressed by CBK this week. The communication issues were so obvious, Wes Durham was talking about it on the broadcast. We can't upgrade coaches or players at this point, but we can at least get the damn call in, even if it's wrong....

    I fell victim to fake news on the internet, but this is still funny.

    Yep - it's a troll account; but a really funny troll account. I'm the guilty party for posting it in the postgame thread.

    In honor of Paul Johnson being at the game tomorrow... what's your favorite memory from his time as coach?

    Oh yeah- Dwyer's righteous block putting a Wake defender on his butt so Josh could walk in for the winning TD!

    In honor of Paul Johnson being at the game tomorrow... what's your favorite memory from his time as coach?

    Sooo much to unpack here. The hoodie and sunglasses along with the rumor that he'd gotten into a fight with one of his players the night before. USC missing the team dinner the night before. Nobody from USC wanted to be there, including Kiffen - they had been preseason no. 1....

    In honor of Paul Johnson being at the game tomorrow... what's your favorite memory from his time as coach?

    2009 vs FSU, when Nesbitt took away the fumble. Edit - followed closely by the second half of the 2014 Orange Bowl, when it became a Shaq-fest and the MS St. DL just gave up.

    Yeah - I knew it looked sketchy, but I was more that a bit surprised by the idea. That, plus apparently Batt and Sankey had a chat during our visit to Ol Miss....

    Pretty sure that the courts take a dim view of using corporate shell games solely to skirt liability.

    Your link just circles back to this thread... Change is coming and it's out of their control. The decline in legacy cable subscription fees will make the decision for them. Broadcast rights values appear to have already peaked; upcoming renewals will be interesting. While subscription fees...

    Spectrum and ESPN fail to agree

    Caught the tail end of a segment on CNBC (xm), so I didn't catch the speaker's name. His take was DIS got a bump for ESPN and Charter shed channels that it didn't want to carry. Overall, he felt that DIS came out ahead.

    Spectrum and ESPN fail to agree

    That was well publicized. Question is whether DIS got extra $$ for that or did they fold?

    Spectrum and ESPN fail to agree

    From the linked article: 1% of households. That is ESPN's nightmare.

    Spectrum and ESPN fail to agree

    Hard to figure out who the winner was without knowing the $$$. If Charter got DIS to throw in DIS+ and ESPN+ without a significant bump in the subscriber fee, I'd be surprised. It does sound like Charter had the better hand tho'...

    Spectrum and ESPN fail to agree

    It's actually a joint venture where Comcast has a 33% stake. Originally, IIRC there were four companies involved, but consolidation has reduced that to two. Disney is currently in negotiations to buy Comcast's stake, but with their financial troubles, it's not clear where the money will come...

    Conference Realignment

    The Dallas hub agreement does not apply to football or basketball. I'm sure that they recruit for the other sports, but I'm not sure how the hub agreement would affect that.
