On Monday we’ll talk B1G and expansion including info from a convo yesterday with B1G source.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 5h5 hours ago
@SpencerLeone For B1G? Next year is the year leading up to primary TV deal. They want Va & NC markets in footprint.

Christopher Lambert
‏@theDudeofWV @SpencerLeone The B1G needs a southern presence. UVA & GT are the top targets along with Duke.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 4h4 hours ago
@SpencerLeone UVA is a natural. But UVA has less need than GT.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 4h4 hours ago
@SpencerLeone But UNC does have need. So does Miami. The scandal at UNC tarnishes their value to the B1G.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 4h4 hours ago
@SpencerLeone So I see nothing happening except maybe UCONN to the ACC & that’s a long shot.
 
The idea that Ga Tech and Duke have surpassed UNC in value to the B1G is loony tunes.
 
Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 2h2 hours ago
@Expansion_Crush I spoke to my B1G contact last week. He was the one who said UCONN wasn't on the radar for various reasons.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 2h2 hours ago
@Expansion_Crush More than just lack of AAU status... capacity, football, the recent APR ban, DMA redundancy.

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@Expansion_Crush No one has yet to give a valid reason why UCONN is on the B1G's radar.

@theDudeofWV @OmegaSupreme914 @Expansion_Crush @SpencerLeone @GregGregoryKJ @posas13 @TimeJim uconn IS a candidate as the New England school

@theDudeofWV @OmegaSupreme914 @Expansion_Crush @SpencerLeone @GregGregoryKJ @posas13 @TimeJim IF they bring Boston it's a huge add

Texas Roundball ‏@TexasRoundball · 48m48 minutes ago
@theDudeofWV @OmegaSupreme914 @Expansion_Crush @SpencerLeone @GregGregoryKJ @posas13 @TimeJim But they are definitely in mix for B1G.

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@OmegaSupreme914 @Expansion_Crush Here's the harsh facts regarding UCONN.

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@OmegaSupreme914 @Expansion_Crush 1. Their football program lacks the necessary pedigree.

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@OmegaSupreme914 @Expansion_Crush 2. UCONN lacks AAU status. 3. UCONN's market devalued by RU in B1G footprint.

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@OmegaSupreme914 @Expansion_Crush 4. APR ban a black mark on hoops program.

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@OmegaSupreme914 @Expansion_Crush 5. UCONN doesn't provide entry into rich Southern recruiting grounds.

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@OmegaSupreme914 @Expansion_Crush Future of both football and basketball programs at UCONN not certain. Football coach hire & ....

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
how Huskie hoops will perform post Calhoun add uncertainty to brand.

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@Expansion_Crush @OmegaSupreme914 Yea... note that all the reasons I cited came from B1G source.

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@Expansion_Crush @OmegaSupreme914 Personally I had forgot about APR ban Calhoun.

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@SpencerLeone WVU is upgrading facilities. it's what keep WVU from the SEC. Do you know UCONN's avg football attendance?

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@gampel_2_msg With Calhoun's players... what did UCONN do last season?

Storrs South ‏@gampel_2_msg · 2h2 hours ago
@theDudeofWV Ollie was the assistant who helped recruit those players

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@SpencerLeone I'm certain that UCONN approached the B1G as they did the B12 and ACC.

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@SpencerLeone But just like all the other AAC schools the math doesn't support the addition.

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@SpencerLeone Counter with just one metric that evaluates to true to justifies UCONN.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 1h1 hour ago
@SpencerLeone PSU isn't going to take a pay cut to play UCONN in football.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 1h1 hour ago
@SpencerLeone The last time I looked OSU was closer to PSU than UCONN. So is RU & UMD.

Texas Roundball ‏@TexasRoundball · 57m57 minutes ago
@theDudeofWV @SpencerLeone PSU loves playing in Boston and NYC markets

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@SpencerLeone Is UCONN AAU? Was UCONN on a APR ban? How long has UCONN been playing FBS football? What's the avg TV rating for football?

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@SpencerLeone Why does UCONN require nearly an $18m subsidy?

Spencer Leone ‏@SpencerLeone · 1h1 hour ago
@theDudeofWV That did not stop Rutgers

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 1h1 hour ago
@SpencerLeone RU added super $ to the BTN. RU's addition closed the door on UCONN to the B1G.

Spencer Leone ‏@SpencerLeone · 1h1 hour ago
@theDudeofWV I wouldnt be certain. I would expect at least 1 more team in the east

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 1h1 hour ago
@SpencerLeone Why does the B1G need a team in the east? They have the most valuable markets in the east - aside from Boston - locked down.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 1h1 hour ago
@SpencerLeone What does the east do for the B1G? The VA & NC markets are far more valuable.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 1h1 hour ago
@theDudeofWV @SpencerLeone B1G can't get into VA/NC markets as they wished they could. UCONN rings the BB ratings bell in NYC. = value

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 1h1 hour ago
@theDudeofWV @SpencerLeone Best available value in the East that fits the BTN is UCONN. UCONN has money issues...but so does Rutgers

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@SpencerLeone How does a program requiring an $18M subsidy have a valuation reaching nearly $50 million TV revenues?

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@SpencerLeone How does UCONN provide enough value to BTN to offset the fact that UCONN couldn't meet the B12's $25M pro rata?

Texas Roundball ‏@TexasRoundball · 1h1 hour ago
@theDudeofWV @SpencerLeone BOSTON, NEW ENGLAND, NYC.

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@SpencerLeone How would UCONN pay for expansion of the football stadium to accommodate B1G football? How would UCONN compete?

Spencer Leone ‏@SpencerLeone · 2h2 hours ago
@theDudeofWV UConn has a roadmap for 2020 posted online. As far as stadium I suspect more state funds

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 2h2 hours ago
@SpencerLeone Then get back to me in 2021.

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@SpencerLeone How does Rutgers affect UCONN's media worth when UCONN football is
virtually worthless?

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@SpencerLeone How will UCONN achieve AAU status? When?

Expansion Crush ‏@Expansion_Crush · 2h2 hours ago
@theDudeofWV
I think our conversations are getting crossed. Spence is shotgunning the conversation

Christopher Lambert @theDudeofWV · 2h 2 hours ago
@Expansion_Crush I'm about to block him. I don't debate opinion when the facts support another valid conclusion.

Texas Roundball ‏@TexasRoundball · 1h1 hour ago
@theDudeofWV @OmegaSupreme914 @Expansion_Crush think alumni locations dummy

Texas Roundball ‏@TexasRoundball · 1h1 hour ago
@Expansion_Crush @theDudeofWV @OmegaSupreme914 mid Atlantic like who? PSU has over 10 times alumni in uconn markets than do in unc/va

No to mention the APR issue. If that true the B1G off, imagine what they think about UNC right now and we all know the B1G would grab UNC if it could be pried away from the ACC, which I have my doubts.
 
I'd be pissed at the dude except he knows nothing, has no real info, knows no real truth... Like a million other attention starved trolls. Just not worth spending a thought on.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 54m54 minutes ago
@flugempire Greg with all due respect that's just not true. What did the B1G tell FSU. AAU is a requirement. B1G is on record.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 50m50 minutes ago
@theDudeofWV FSU falls short on B1G profile. So do some on current AAU list. AAU votes on entry do not control B1G future Exp candidates

Greg Flugaur @flugempire · 22m 22 minutes ago
@SpencerLeone You need to match..be close to Big Ten profile. But AAU does not control the Big Ten list of candidates.
 
Flug doesn't even have 300 followers. Why does his stuff keep getting reposted here? Maybe he is one of you guys and you're pulling off a perfectly executed troll. If so, well done.

Flug is reasonably intelligent. He doesn't shout stupid things at high volume like the Dude.
 
The Dood's agenda is simple. His feelings are hurt because the ACC rejected WVU. It's an insane attempt to damage the ACC through crazytalk.

Flugar I'd be shocked if he wasn't a Minnesota fan. His motivation beyond attention is a mystery.

Keep in mind that that top 30 market does not include another million in FFC. I think the Doody and the Flug have discovered the non-key tweet threat and are specifically trolling this board. Some of the other persona's seem a little to convenient. I think that they are creations of these attention seeking whores.

You nailed it on the dood. He is an open book.

His tweets recently about unc being devalued in delaney's eyes, thanks to their academic issues, is a laughable attempt to exact some emotional revenge, given that UNC was supposedly a vocal oppomemt of a WVU in the ACC.
