@flugempire @theDudeofWV Money gap widening + continue rising costs to play at highest level = 2019 explosion if not at least big ripple

@theDudeofWV ACC schools received consideration when they signed their GOR (received bump $)
ACC GOR is real.
B12 GOR is real.
However...

@theDudeofWV ....the power of the BTN & SECN is real...and growing every year by leaps and bounds.
In 3/4 yrs GOR teeth shrink in size

I love that these two loons have found each other.
I also love that FSU was so damn determined to get a football brand, torpedoed our entry to the ACC and then tried to go out and leave the league. Thanks, guys!

LOL...FSU was not rejected bu the Big Ten..
Actually that is nonsense as usual from the Dude and the dude from St. Paul.
I called him on it when he originally said it and named his FSU source...I tweeted his source who tweeted that he was laughing at that suggestion...and then burned Chris by posting the tweets from his named source.
The truth is that the FSU BOT was not happy with the Tobacco Road cartel and their grip on the ACC, the perceived officiating and scheduling bias....and they wanted to get the conference's attention that basketball was not the only game in town.
Never talked to the Big 12 nor the Big 10....did have a back door discussion with friends in SEC.

That's like the fourth time someone on this board has taken a statement right out of my year end performance reviews. I swear my manager feeds this board my performance bullets.

The author Larry Block tells a story about being dragged into the Dean's office at his college during his Animal House days and the Dean told him:
You're a genius. It's not enough to be a genius, you have to be a genius at something.
This is my take on the B1G: I immediately discount a lot of rumors based on academics and geography. Yes, the leadership of B1G knows football drives the money now but they're thinking--or trying to--about 50 years out. There is deep concern over the viability of football in light of the concussion issues and whether they can or should continue. There is also concern over the long term viability of the network model. The last thing I see the B1G doing is stepping far afield from their current footprint to add schools that don't fit the academic profile and goals of the consortium.
If football goes away and the cable model yields to a less lucrative ala carte model, the B1G still wants to remain a viable if less lucrative conference and, among other things, that means retaining geographic cohesion. It's one thing to put a football team on a plane and fly out for 5 games a year; quite another when you're sponsoring 25 sports.
If you're Texas, yes, the B1G will take your call and, yes, you can probably start planning the B1G rebranding of the stadium. If you're not, your chances are going to substantially enhanced by simple geography and AAU status--or, at the very least, commitment to being an AAU level research school.

Delany isn't playing hard ball again because he didn't play hard ball with ESPN before--ESPN played hard ball with Delany with their unrealistically low, take-it-or-leave-it offer. Delany didn't create the Big Ten Network--ESPN did when they basically left the Big Ten with no alternative to creating their own network. If it bites ESPN now, here I am playing the world's smallest violin. Arrogant, monopolistic pr--ks.
That said, now Delany is in a position to play some hard ball.
Wondering aloud: What if B1G keeps Tier 1 for their own network? I'll have to ponder on that awhile...

Projected TV revenue in 17-18 (1st yr of new B1G deal): SEC: $36M, B1G: $33M, Pac12: $23. Big problem for the Pac: http://bayareane.ws/1Go1f2T
Greg Flugaur @flugempire · 22h 22 hours ago
@wilnerhotline the Big Ten number of 33 mil makes no sense. It's going to be much bigger. On the old Teir 1 deal B1G 35 mil per in 2016-17
Greg Flugaur @flugempire · 22h 22 hours ago
@wilnerhotline For your SEC numbers you combine teir 1 & SECN projections 20 + 16 = 36. But you don't combine Big Ten proj of teir 1+BTN
Greg Flugaur @flugempire · 21h 21 hours ago
@wilnerhotline I appreciate the effort you put into showing a gap growing between PAC & Big Ten & SEC. But the gap will be even greater.
Greg Flugaur @flugempire · 21h 21 hours ago
@wilnerhotline I have no idea where you came up with 33mil per Big Ten for 2017/18. It will be much greater. Even article you site shows >>
Greg Flugaur @flugempire · 21h 21 hours ago
@wilnerhotline yeah.. Your 33 mil number for 2017/18 does not include BTN numbers. Projected 2017/18 all inclusive is actually 44.5 mil B1G
Greg Flugaur @flugempire · 21h 21 hours ago
Even for those who follow this stuff...are still underating the gap...the growing $ gap between SEC/Big Ten vs other 3. Many will be shocked
Greg Flugaur @flugempire · 21h 21 hours ago
@TexasRoundball It actually downplays the growing gap because it doesn't add up correctly what the Big Ten is projected to get in 17/18.
Greg Flugaur @flugempire · 21h 21 hours ago
@TexasRoundball So even when people put in the work to show the massive growing gap..they still failing to show the whole picture.
Greg Flugaur @flugempire · 21h 21 hours ago
And because people are underating the growing $ gap...they are overating the stability of the current conference landscape.

@maroon_baboon @theDudeofWV ACC can't montize the state of Viginia...Big Ten and FOX can. Just ask Maryland. VT would be a sensational fit
