isn't that the ivy league now? Not picking on you. That sounds like a terrible idea. The athletic budget would crumble and impossible to pay off our existing debt. Plus a true college has many sports teams, not just football. We would basically be intramurals with $100M in debt for no...

its a very short term upside side and a long term downside as ESPN could chose not to renew and we will put our media package out to bid in just a few years with all the uncertainty that comes with that

I hope each side pushes the other so hard that they both make lots of mistakes. Mistakes are the fastest way to learn. Much rather they happen now and get fixed than when we play FSU.

just stop with all the facts

If there is direct clear correlation between school spending and wins (Uncertain if this is in fact true), then I think the BIG is setup to generate more revenue since they are working to cover the whole US. But they need to put a dent into the SEC so I could see them snagging GT, FSU and...

This could very well save us a spot over FSU or Clemson. Location location location. Assuming the ACC does in fact implode. Which I don't believe it will. There are a lot of BIG alumni in the ATL area

my main argument is the big is generating more revenue from their channel per subscriber because Rutgers is there than without them. Not the viewership. There are a lot of BIG alumni in the area watching the channel that dont care about Rutgers.

you seem to be having some false confirmation biases issues. Rutgers is huge. Concerning the market, the big10 is getting a lot of extra money from that market due to adding them. I would need to see actual facts to disprove that in order to say it is NOT all about the market. otherwise, it...

Whats interesting with this (I dont disagree) is one could argue that Tech brings more TV value or comparable to FSU and Clemson. Not so much from the fanbase but more so our location and the strong number BIG alumni that live in the ATL area

bonus points for using "S-curve"

@CEB Thanks for clearing that up. Hopefully others will be openminded to realize what you are describing is by far the most likely path and have nothing to do with how much FSU or even a few others decided to throw a hissy fit

Depending on how strong/weak the ACC looks between now and then, then it allows the ACC to put our media package out to bid. I dont get how people cant figure this out. Especially since the ACC generates significant profit for ESPN. There WILL be other bidders for our media package

pain de mais

I am fine as long as it is worth repeating.

And Thomas's stiff arm. I loved his ability to pile drive the corner into the ground with one arm

i love a well executed rocket toss. (And well timed when it is not expected)

This can be said for anything. everything dies. But not today.

There is absolutely no way the Big10 would put themselves at risk here with this nonsense you are posting. Basically the ACC would get to broadcast every FSU game including all the B10 games that FSU plays and monetize it. Not paying would breach any agreement for them to leave putting the...

Be careful here. Its not like we are playing in a super soft conference like the SEC
