The slobbering cromagnon thats been to more Big Tweleve title games in two years then KU has ever been to?

You underestimate KU's national appeal.

This is why only a few schools can have ticket scandals. KU is one of them.

And you continue to overestimate the leverage of any mens college basketball team.

There are dozens of attractive games on every single day. Do you honestly think a television network is going to offer an exclusive rights contract and pay tens of millions for the right to televise KU v. Iowa State?

Hell no it won't. There are way too many good basketball games every night. There's no mens college basketball program in the entire country that has the juice to get a major network to pay any appreciable amount of money for an exclusive rights deal.

You absolutely have to stop ignoring market realities here. There are too many options out there for the networks for them to put any appreciable money into a television contract with KU.

(assuming the shift really happens)

Don't worry, Bugeater...the whole conference rival thing is about to take care of itself. Now worries.

One winning season in the Mac. Yup he's a great coach ROFL

You're right, KU hasn't been to any Big "Tweleve" title games. Is that going to be the new name of the conference when everybody leaves? ROFL

And then UConn, Syracuse, Georgetown, St. Johns.... oh wait. We don't have financials on sports from those schools for some reason

ROFL Just can't admit it can you? Do you see the conferences being realigned around the basketball programs?
Why do you think that is?
And yet there is something in you that wants to continue to make an ass out of yourself by insisting that bball generates more revenue than fball.

He was undefeated as a head coach in 2003. :D

What's your point? He was the d-cordinator on two different teams that went to a title game and turned around Nebraskas defense when he was the DC. Also won a super bowl with the Niners as a defensive backs coach. He was qualified to be a head coach, Turner Gil isn't.

Well he must suck then that's why he was on the list of several other BCS schools also when they were looking for coaches. Even your AD thinks he is a great coach. At the time Nebraska needed a defensive minded coach, or did you forget the 76 pts that KU hung on them.

Vailpass at KU is DOES...! That's not even in doubt here. That's why the KU guys can't get any of this realignment stuff straight. They think basketball is more important than football, because it is to them. To the REST of the freaking world, and that includes the guys who write the checks for advertising and every other good or service, football is king. We can continue to tell them that until we're all red in the face...it will never sink in.

I have a better question for you. Are you a CU fan, and if so, are you buying the theory that the MWC would be better for CU than the PAC 10?

This is hilarious. What was Osborne suppose to say about his former player?

Ok so Gill's time as an OC in Nebraska don't count?
