Uh, you called someone out for the very thing you do yourself (fat obsession). Thus, the comment from me. |

Being overweight doesn't really point to any character flaws in a person (in most cases), being a fan of certain schools, does though. Can we please get back to talking shit on the schools we attended or are fans of?

FTR, I've never said anything about $9M, that was in one of the articles I used to source the $1.3 and $4.5M, IIRC. This was the post you questioned: Quote:
You asked me to source those numbers, and I did. |

Yeah, you got all butthurt and neg-repped me over a flippant comment I made about something that happened 150 years ago. I'm sorry. Do you require therapy now? |

Honestly, you can google or bing "Notre Dame NBC contract" and get numerous reports with both numbers. The only numbers regarding ND that I never see waver are the BCS payouts. Those numerous conflicting reports are another reason why I give a bit more credence to the Professor's claims than you do. |

Notre Dame will not move until/unless it becomes clear the super conference is coming.
I think the writing is on the wall with that. My favorite thing in all this... Texas' "Ultimatum" is just going to work in Missouri and Nebraska's favor. Best thing that could happen for those schools: 1) Friday "Ultimatum" deadline comes and goes, and the Texas 6 depart as a result. 2) THOSE schools are the ones that get nailed for leaving the league on short notice. (LOLZ) 3) The Big Ten, in response to the Pac-16, goes to 16 (or possibly even 18). Notre Dame, seeing the super conference movement pick up speed, agrees to join the new Big 16 (rather than get left behind. All that NBC money dwindles if all the rest of the good football schools take their balls to a new league) 4) Missouri, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Rutgers and Syracuse join the Big 16. 5) kansas, kansas state, Iowa State and the loser of the Baylor/Colorado feud for the Texas 6's final spot join the MWC (which likely gains BCS status in a year or two... and then sees the BCS disappear when the fourth super conference is formed). This is extremely beneficial for Missouri and Nebraska recruiting (both in KC, Missouri in St. Louis). And I'll wish ku good luck recruiting Josh Shelby's when they are playing in the MWC and not on national TV weekly... |

I just can't see those 6 going to the Pac-10 for multiple reasons: 1. This hot shot new Pac-10 commish may have bitten off more than than he can chew with his words Sunday. Rumor now is that the Academia wing of the Pac 10 (Cal, Stanford, etc.) are not so sure about schools like Ok St, Texas Tech and Baylor... Athletics do not mean everything to millions of college people in this country. 2. Everyone is ignoring the time difference and travel distance issues. Collegiate athletics is not all about football no matter how much these media talking heads are trying to make it out to be. Washington State to Southern Cal is one thing... Washington State to Texas is another. 3. So Texas is just going to give up all it has to deal with playing Oklahoma every year in a division title game and then having to end up playing USC for the title? I'm not so sure. For what? The prospects of a $20 million share of a TV contract? A lot of which will have to go back into funding the crazy travel and scheduling of the smaller sports? Why not just stay where they are? I can believe MU wanting to go to the Big 10, the question is whether or not they end up asking. NEB I think will be more likely to be asked, but more unlikely to accept than MU. If they're both ask, they both go. But I don't think Texas reacts because of those two schools leaving. If they go it will be their own decision. |

2) They will find a scheduling deal that works for Olympic sports. For football, travel won't be a huge issue due to the division alignment. 3) The Big 12 has a shitty TV deal that is already far behind the Big Ten, SEC and ACC. How is it going to improve that without Missouri and Nebraska? If the Texas 6 to the Pac-10 doesn't handle, the league likely WILL grab Colorado and Utah. The Big 12 HAS to improve the next deal or it's going to die. Ain't going to happen without the markets Missouri and Colorado bring. Lose either, and you're lucky to find a TV deal consistent with inflation. Lose both? YOu're taking a step back. 4) Missouri and Nebraska are both going to get offers. It's highly possible each has at least a verbal offer in place at this point (and has for a while). |
UCLA, USC, and Washington are much better than decent efforts.
Academically, those three universities are significantly better than any university in the Big XII not named Texas. |

Anyway, I know Memphis recruits at a huge level despite the CUSA affiliation, but that's with huge regional recruiting advantages, entrance requirements that basically amount to: "Can you spell your name" and an AD that has been tied pretty strongly to blatant cheating (Derrick Rose, anyone?). Would ku eventually have to resort to similar tactics to stay where it is? |
Quote:
The Pac-10 is very top heavy with strong academic institutions... but the bottom of the conference isn't much different than what the Texas 6 would bring (outside CU, aTm and UT).... |
Quote:
So no, moving to the MWC won't hurt Kansas basketball that much imo. They'll soon be setting the all time record for consecutive NCAA tournament appearances and I don't think that's in jeporday either. But I don't think the Big 12's breaking up so what does it matter? |
Regarding the 'massive' Big 12 TV deal - it's a pipe dream.
Texas is going to insist on its own TV network as a condition to keeping the Big 12 alive. It's going to tell Big 12 leadership that it's only going to decline the Pac-10 deal if the B12 consents to the UT network with UT keeping the revenue. If Texas has it's own Network, the Big 12 TV deal is worth about a buck fiddy. The Big 12 is dead. Be it this year or in 3 years -- it's ****ing dead. By whoring out to Texas, the Big 12 has ensured that it's little more than UT's bitch. You simply cannot allow one school to control a conference like this. Beebe was too damn stupid to realize it. It's over. If they want to limp along for another year or two, maybe they can. But the Big 12 as a legitimate major conference is done. |

here's an interesting study from the 07-8 school year on total athletic revenue for FBS schools...

Kansas brings in a tremendous amount of money for ITSELF. The worry is does it make a TV cable subscriber deal better to sell? KU has a huge national following but that doesn't neccessarily translate to cable subscriptions at home, where there just aren't that many people. I agree, the athletic achievement that KU has is going to be hard to ignore if any of this movement ever happens. |

Huge national following.

I truly believe you are greatly underestimating the impact of becoming a mid-major. Maybe the SEC or even the ACC will toss you a life preserver, but if KU ends up in the Mountain West, say goodbye to being a national power (if ever you truly were. 2 championships in 50 years is hardly what I'd consider a powerhouse, but that's a separate debate...) Notre Dame is your white knight. You'd better hope those fellas commit and stop this expansion talk soon... |
KU's chancellor called the chancellors of Nebraska and Missouri just to tell them about Kansas's superiority and to remind them that basketball season was on the way.
"How many Final Fours do you have?" was the ending question. |
