Message: [QUOTE="BlueDogs, post: 4016620, member: 891"] The statement was “I hope”. If I were him, I be meeting with President and Trustees and laying out potential options, putting together a financial analysis regarding the economic benefits both direct and indirect of moving to a major conference, and I be meeting with legislators and the governor to discuss the appetite of buying into a conference like the B1G. This is an economic dev project with long term benefits. I’d be ready to pay in $125M to take in a half share ($25M) for 5 years with a full share thereafter. For the ACC, the local economic drivers are not nearly as attractive and the rev share is smaller, but, again, the is really about economic development and putting a real sports product into Connecticut . Connecticut is sitting on boat loads of federal cash they are not spending. [/QUOTE]
