[QUOTE="Techster, post: 883434, member: 360"] EVERY is school is "used for programming content". That is literally why media agreements exist. Some years schools are chicken and rice fillers, other years they're five star main courses. When GT was good (2008-2009, 2014) we had more prime time slots and nationally televised games. When we weren't we played at noon on a regional station. Look at Texas/USC/UCLA. All blueblood targets for SEC and B1G. They have been relegated to non-prime time slots and regional broadcasts for a majority of their games because they just haven't been doing that well. Outside of a few matchups with traditional rivals (UT-OU, USC-ND, UCLA-USC, etc), their games just haven't generated that much attention. It's like anything else. When you're good, no matter what school you are (see Cinncinnatti, UCF), people want to watch you. When you're not, not many care. Whether you want to believe it or not, GT still has name recognition. It's starting to fade as the years go by, but GT does mean something to the college sports world. There's a reason GT is probably the top 2-3 targets for B1G if the GOR ever gets worked out. [/QUOTE]
