We’ll know when the ACC will implode. 3 months after the UConn to B12 rumors start.

That's better than the defense the Big East football teams play.The B-12 is an interesting league. None of the football teams play any defense and none of the basketball teams play any offense.

Somebody supports UConn footballSomebody's sensitive.
I'm glad you do, I do as well. I'd be willing to wager at a far higher level (both financially and in terms of time invested) than all but a couple in this board.Somebody supports UConn football

There is not a less likable person in sports media than Paul Finebaum.Paul Finebaum sends strong message on the ACC, Big 12 missing boat on adding Memphis
Paul Finebaum believes the ACC and Big 12 missed the boat by not adding Memphis during the latest round of conference realignment -- chastising the conferencesflywareagle.com

All very unlikeable, but to me Paul is the worst.Skip Bayless, Keith Olbermann, Stephen A. Smith, Darren Rovell, Kendrick Perkins, Mad Dog, Mike Francesca, Jason Whitlock, Jeff Goodman, Pat Forde, Clay Travis, Colin Cowherd, Jim Rome, WEEI generally, and Paul Finebaum blows too.

Isn’t that irrelevant as the money goes into the same budget .I guess my question was does anyone know what the basketball program would get BE now vs Big 12 now in actual dollars?
You have the same Title IX requirements as long as you’re carrying the same number of scholarships. Football having a large number of players is responsible for 3-4 Women's teams under that law.What does Title IX have to do with football programs breaking off into their own conferences?
IF we ever got the Big12 invite, I'd imagine it would be at a partial payout for several/many years.Isn’t that irrelevant as the money goes into the same budget .
If we went into the Big 12
At full share our distribution from conference would be between $40- 50 million
The footballl budget might see a $20 million increase the rest would be distributed as we saw fit ,
When.you add in attendance increases it might be another $10,000,000
That seems to be the new reality. The devil is in the details of course. It depends on the amount of the "partial" payment and its duration.IF we ever got the Big12 invite, I'd imagine it would be at a partial payout for several/many years.
I’m probably naive but I always assumed this is the move we make once we HAVE to. In other words, once the powers that be relegate the Big East out of power status in basketball. If we have to take the same money but live in a conference that will survive the shifting landscape, so be it.IF we ever got the Big12 invite, I'd imagine it would be at a partial payout for several/many years.
Well the Big12 viewed our FB as an albatross, so hopefully it is more than the same money we are getting now. Any additional money beyond what we get now should be focused on improving FB. I think we were #2 nationally in money allocated toward BB 2nd only to Duke, it was reported during the NCAA tournament.I’m probably naive but I always assumed this is the move we make once we HAVE to.
