If true, I think this puts the final nail in the coffin for UCLA...
Uhhhh . . . This does not look good for the PAC. Taking a one time $500 million payout, they would be giving up 10% of any future revenue. The article says all conference broadcasting rights, sponsorship rights, merchandising, and all other commercial assets brought under “PacNewCo.” Everything...
Was reading the thread over on the BBall forum (even had a (post in it). Seems like a good coach for you all! Now we just need to get you all into the Big10 and bringing back UConn men's basketball will be a great start!
The University of Illinois sure looks like it's going to use their Big10 money on a D1 hockey program. They have one of the best club hockey programs and it looks like they are going to move up to D1.
From the article:
Based on interviews with, and feedback from, campus and community...
Austin Karp from Sports Business Daily took a look at the viewership from the 2017 College Football season. While many of the networks saw a decline, it was because there were so many games in each the slot (usually three) and that he thinks there was "some sort of record" for the most minutes...
UNC is up for accreditation and the SAC is looking into the UNC report that they gave to the NCAA. Apparently, UNC said they wouldn’t honor the paper classes. They changed their story in their report to the NCAA. Much better explanation in the article

It's a 4-1 series, but Liberty's home game is first (2020). Not sure why VT would go for this.

Virginia Tech, Liberty add 5-game series; 2022, 2030 at Liberty; 2027, 2028, 2029 at VT

Over at Rocks House (ND Fan Forum), there was a discussion on the Big10 and several fans were arguing that it was in their best interest!

Give it read. Some seem to hate being in the ACC and being UNC's and Dukes "doormat" and they would rather play the Purdue's and Illinois' than the...
Illinois is the first to have their needs to be evaluated. Link
From the article:
The news doesn't mean that Illinois, or any of the other four schools, will join Division I, but the study should give those schools a framework as to what will be needed in order to make the jump, including...
The interesting thing about that as it's through 2022, just one year before their media deal and GoR is up in 2023. He's also the president of the PAC12 enterprises, the company that runs the PAC12 network. Could they be looking for a new distribution method?
Nothing big, but interesting on...
I don't have the link (it's from one of Minnesota's paid sites), but the rumor is that North Dakota will be invited as a partial member for hockey. The announcement will come this summer.
If this is true, it's a great move. UND would round out a great conference with the best Midwestern hockey...
They are really pushing the Big12 can't afford another miss from the playoff. Sure seems like they are trying to downgrade that's conference. If the Amazon trying to pick up sports programming rumors are really true, I can see ESPN and Fox trying to tear off the valuable pieces from the Big12...
1. When will schools stop scheduling these high level FCS schools? Did no one learn from our Appy St game? Iowa has nothing to win and everything to lose when they play teams like North Dakota St. NDSU is the five time FCS champ and would beat many FBS teams this year. It's not like NDSU is a...
ASU and Minnesota State won't be joining the NCHC as was previously thought. Seems that the lack of a home arena may be the cause of the issue.

Hmmmmm . . . Not quite sure what to think of this. I thought it was a sure thing and ASU was heading to the NCHC. I guess ASU and Minny State...
ISU is screwed with out an extension of the GoR. There is no one that will take them and they, along with Baylor, TCU and KSU will be one of the first casualties.

GT AD Mike Bobinski on Atlanta radio and my proposal for making an ACC Net
He was asked point blank the following question:
"The SEC network is now huge and the Big 10 network has emerged from some lean years at the beginning to a major revenue addition to that league. There are even reports...
WVU President and member of the Big12 expansion committee was quoted in the Charleston Gazette-Mail as saying the Big12 expansion is on a hiatus. Citing the inclusion of Oklahoma in the playoff, the Big12 isn't as gun ho on adding members. From the December 21st edition of the Charleston...
Is the ACC trying to make a run in football? They are going after and getting some of the biggest names in this coaching cycle. Richt to Miami, Fuentes to VT, Mendenhall to UVA and, if the rumors are correct, Dino Babers to Syracuse. They are spending some serious coin to get these coaches. With...
So many close games and teams pushing the power conferences, including you all pushing Mizzou to the brink. NIU tied with OSU at the half, CMU almost beating 'Cuse, Troy pushing Wisconsin, it's all good.
Former Red Wings Darrin McCarty and former Aves Claude Lemieux have signed on to play an alumni game between the Red Wings and the Aves Feb 26th. This brought me back to one of my favorite sports moments that didn't involve raising a trophy or cutting down nets: March 26th, 1997 - Bloody...
