Tony makes great charts. And that is all I can say about of a lot of Tony’s content. He died once on the hill that p12 was never going to be pulled apart. I’m sure he’s had other misses. Great charts though- very handy.

Aaron Torres thinks that UConn will eventually land in the Big 12. Starts at around 47:00.

I agree. “Jointly” is key. I think it basically comes down to what happens with FSU and Clemson, and once they leave, I think Yormark will have the go ahead to take UConn with ACC schools. Rule #1 be damned.

Quite a bit of profanity in this one...

Thoroughly enjoyable!! He's got some great one liners in there. Totally worth a listen.

That was some good crap. Sounds like smart people in Big 12 country are catching onto UConn’s brand picking up on what Yormark is putting down. Can’t wait for the presidents to catch up!

Maybe we can introduce a pass the hat program

Raising ticket prices to pay the players

It is important to remember that some of the programs that seem to be really rich have already spent every nickel of revenue that comes in the door, before they get to paying the players.

And yet UConn continues to be punished for doing more with less.

Not to start another stadium debate because nothing will be happening unless a P invite materialized. but this looks entertaining

Spare me the DJ nest and instead give me more seats.

A stadium DJ (DJ Dogpound) was the start of our fall .... and looks like the start of FSU's too.

So the ACC can take UConn, sooner rather than later.

why do you want to be in a dead league so bad?

my apologies but I think ACC will survive and thrive, especially with UConn as a member

It sounds like if FSU and Clemson are happy with unequal revenue sharing then the ACC won't need to take UConn at all

You need additional revenue. The other schools are not going to take haircut off the existing pie.

I think it will survive, but cease as a power conference for football. If the agreed GoR end date is 2030, any school that can jump to the Big10/SEC will jump. Basketball may be different, but if the increased payout is mostly for football viewership, many of the ACC will struggle with their income.

Well, a DJ can't hurt and a student deck looks like fun

I have to say the Duke version looks more impressive.

Some play checkers, others play chess. Yeah, maybe this doesn't exactly belong here, but I think it does because it is illustrative of the bigger visions the flagship and elite academic schools are working towards. They are arent resting. Their ideas are near limitless. Does Mich plant this flag w/o the B1G footprint expansion, seems unlikely. UConn has been big thinkers the past decade....but there are another few rungs to aspire too.
