The long rumored firing of on air talent has begun. I never understood why they paid some of their on air talent so much when ESPN in most cases was the only option for their employment. They would pay these host millions of dollars a year when in reality the market didn’t justify the salaries...

Looks like Disney wants to jettison ABC and ESPN. The cord cutting and the cord nevers are finally catching up to ESPN. I am curious as to why FOX, CBS, and NBC weren’t more aggressive with going after additional Pac 12 teams (Oregon, WA, Stamford, Cal)? The four corner teams could’ve gone to...

Not the result we were looking for today. If you would’ve asked back in August if we were going bowling most of us would’ve said no. This season has been a success and Coach Mora and staff deserve credit. Much improvement needs to be made especially with the passing game. To accomplish what this...

We need two games added to the schedule for 2024. Notre Dame has an opening for their senior night game in late November and we don’t have a pay day game scheduled for 2024. I think this would be a good opportunity for exposure and revenue. We would need to find a home game for 2024 as well.

Well the B1G has their new media rights package starting in 2023. Very interesting and telling that they placed a huge importance on linear television to broadcast their games. It will be in stark contrast to the deal the SEC has with ESPN/ABC which the majority of the games will be on the cable...

BYU has extra inventory from their existing 2024 & 2026 schedules. With their impending move to the Big 12 this may present opportunity for us to pick up some P5 opponents?

For two tickets to the Houston game tomorrow.

I wonder if this will become a trend? https://www.espn.com/college-sports/recruiting/football/story/_/id/31483492/no-82-recruit-jaydon-blue-skip-senior-season-high-school-football-prepare-commitment-texas-longhorns

NBC sports is shutting down and will be transferring their content to their sister channels. The main reason they cited was the continuing hemorrhaging of cord cutting customers and low ratings. I know we have a decent contract with CBS Sports. With ESPN taken over the SEC in a few years I’m...

First day in the Big East.

He was a dual threat quarterback from western Pennsylvania. If we can convince him to play here he would most likely get immediate playing time.

Is there a game thread anymore? If so, where did it move to?

Looks like the rest of the AAC East is taken football seriously except us.

ESPN has lost 2 million subscribers this year. With the conference media rights up for renegotiation in a few years this is bound to have an impact. I wonder if more games will return to OTA medium or will the big social media companies make a bid for online-mobile viewing options? Sports...

We all know about the power five rivalries. Who should the American schedule for rivalry weekend?

Anybody listening to the game on the radio? One of the announcers won’t stop nose sniffing into the microphone and it is extremely annoying.

What radio stations is the Randy Edsall coaches show on?

Looking for a blue parking pass for tomorrow’s game.

As most the you know, Nebraska had their much anticipated home opener canceled due to inclement weather. They are absolutely desperate to schedule a makeup game and have an opening on 27 October. We play UMass on the same date. I am wondering if a mutually beneficial settlement between us...

Was there a UConn football coache's show this week? I had the radio on WTIC yesterday after six and they still had the afternoon show on.

ESPN Can’t Afford Monday Night Football Any More Here is a well written article detailing just how much financial trouble ESPN is actually in

Seeking two tickets for Saturday (USF). Ticket location not important. Send PM if anyone has available tickets.

I guess this is an improvement.

The cable box subscriber base is really starting to hemorrhage for ESPN. A subscriber loss of 422,000 from the months of February-March. Those are big numbers. You wonder how long they can stay in business under the current business model. I believe their political activism is starting to really...

I'm looking for an extra ticket for the UConn-Tulane game tomorrow. Does anybody have a spare ticket out there?

Seeing the pageantry and the entrance like the one at Clemson makes me realize how far we have to go. College football truly is a religion down south.

http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/14344176/greg-schiano-former-tampa-bay-buccaneers-coach-named-defensive-coordinator-ohio-state-buckeyes I think he will be able to lure a few top recruits from New Jersey.

I just returned home from Texas today from a weeklong business trip. I was able to watch the Longhorn network a few times. They had all of the big 12 teams given their press conferences during their media day events. The production quality was top notch. I can see why Texas wants to expand this...

Anyone know when their current deal expires? When they’ll start in earnest with negotiations for a new media deal? Don’t these negotiations start well before the current deal is complete?

I am in Chicago attending a trade show and will unfortunately be missing the game. I do have the iPad at full power and tuned into the watch ESPN App, so I'll be able to watch the game during the convention.

How is it possible for Cincinnati to open up the season with two consecutive bye weeks. Did somebody cancel on them, which prevented them from finding a replacement early in the season?

The University of Buffalo is hosting the number eight team in the nation this weekend-Baylor. I'm not sure if this is a return trip from a 2-1? We should be able to get mid-level power five teams to be able to come to the rent?

Will this be the last year of the three bye weeks during the season?

Coach P. to be fired today for Hartford County. News conference at 4 PM.

I have two tickets to the Michigan game that I'm looking to sell. They are the blue chair-back seats located on the 45 yard line. They are located in the lower part of the upper bowl. They are aisle seats. If needed, I can include a blue parking pass. Send me a private message if anybody is...
