[QUOTE="stinger 1957, post: 881804, member: 1682"] Fair chance they may not be, that's why the conferences have to have size, cover lots of geographic territory, they will need to have their own TV systems, sell streaming memberships to alums, fans, students, have full blown sales depts for advertising, a complete working business model IMO, the reason they want large media mkts etc., BIG can sell advertising nationwide. They may be the only college conference that will be able to do so nationwide. Look, I'm sure some of what I'm saying may not be exactly right, but I think conferences saw this coming long ago and is part of the reason they started their own TV networks, getting ready for the time when they needed to go totally independent of network TV. Each school may be able to use this system for education purposes, other things who knows. I see unbelievable possibilities, particularly in the light that I strongly believe that higher education and how we educate people in the future is going to drastically change. How many people have I heard over the years say they hardly used any thing college gave them when they got out in the real world, including GT grads, grads from Stanford, Auburn, you name it, I just heard it from a 25 year old GT grad that's newly out in the world working. This is all going to change IMO, it's so damn expensive it had to change, I see internships in all sort of forms coming more and more into play, in bigger ways and educational needs being built around what you are doing in your internship/career entry. Again, I'm sure I'm not right on this but I believe I'm hitting all around it. All IMO I guess is the best way to say it, and I've been wrong before. [/QUOTE]
