CT could get a much higher bang for their buck with those incentives than ESPN.
The AAC will be on TV a lot for no other reason than ESPN is bleeding content at a very high rate. There aren't a lot of other choices. The Big 10...
I was very proud of my original post. Never really got going though.
Cincinnati will be in the big 12 before UConn upgrades its conference.
Most shows that cast a lot of kids have at least one actor/actress that doesn't come out of puberty anything like they went in. Tina Yothers is the...
They make Ygrette so freaking sexy in the show. If I was Jon Snow, I think it would take me about 10 seconds to blow off my vows to the crying tree...
Danaerys is much more interesting in the show than she is in the book. A lot of people are not going to like where HBO's season 3 ends up. If...
I wouldn't be surprised to see the AAC swipe a spot in the Hawaii bowl eventually. That would be a good bowl and good matchup against a decent MWC...
There is not a single program in the AAC that would have finished in the Top 4 of the Big East more than once in the last 5 years. We are going to...
Is Pastner the worst game coach in basketball? I know Memphis always looks like pickup basketball on both ends, but how does this guy not go deeper...
It is possible that the Big 5 might break off, but I don't think they will because: 1) A break would shrink the market. You don't increase your...
As I said 4 years ago, the ONLY way UConn survives as a medium to big time athletic program is to figure out how to get more TV revenue quickly....
I think HBO has done a tremendous job with the adaptation. Many of the best scenes in the show were not in the book, such as Varys and Littlefinger...
I think the entire bowl system will be dead within 10 years. It is already in free fall.
So 50% of 5* recruits, who are supposed to be mortal locks to be superstars, don't get drafted? Sounds like a pretty lousy average to me....
The only consistent driver of expansion has been TV value. UConn's is currently $2MM a year.
I suspect that this will become one of the last active realignment boards pretty soon. Not too many other fan bases really care about it any more.
I would say he has about a 75% chance of getting picked in the lottery. Weak draft, and you can't teach 6'11. He doesn't completely suck, which...
It is completely idiotic to say that 16 isn't easier to schedule than 14. 4 pod's is much easier and more symmetrical than 2 divisions of 7. That...
I think inventory will matter, in both sports. Football isn't such a big problem because with 7 games a weekend there is plenty of content even if 2...
I think Eddie Redmayne was awesome. He isn't necessarily a big name, but he has been in a fair amount of stuff. Jackman was excellent too.
Robb was pretty important in the books. The Major Character bloodbath at the end of Book 3 is a problem all around. Two of the most important...
Coach P's failure does not make Edsall a success. Edsall was a very good recruiter, and a wildly overrated gameday coach.
I stopped reading at the second paragraph when you said it wasn't geography.
I suspect Barkley is trying to find a time machine on eBay right now to go pro last year. I know USC is in SoCal and Kiffen has a huge payroll, but...
I bet we have 3 less home games a year in the AAC than we did before.
The main exercise I want Daniels working on is one that teaches him to stop losing his guy on defense.
Florida is a good home and home. We need 6 of these games a year against top 75 OOC opponents. This is going to be expensive. When we play more...
Every ROFR I have ever seen serves primarily to scare people off. Why spend time and money to bid on something you have no chance of winning?...
I do think that the exposure could end up being better than the BE. ESPN has lost a ton of content in this round of television contracts, and will...
ROFR's are so mother&%#$ing stupid to grant that Tranghese should be forced to repay every nickel he ever got from the league. Aresco deserves some...
Cause and UConn were the ACC's first choices in 2011. Frank is wrong.
To be fair, no one in the world predicted that the ACC would sign a GOR.
In M H 3's defense, he apparently went on a Twitter rant last Thursday about how the Big 12 missed an opportunity. Proof that he had some inside...
Daniels problem is not on offense.
Separate names with a comma.
