No doubt given Boise State CC delivers little to nothing compared with UT's massive student, alumni, and fan populations, overall athletic department, and university reach. No population, DMA, cities, nada, zip, zilch, etc. When some people mention Boise State and the Pac 12, it's comical. UT, not so comical and almost sensible should the Big 12 explode and the Pac 12 be willing to accommodate Bevo.

Agree, no disrespect to Boise St football; but Boise is the 110th largest TV market with roughly 260,000 households. UConn owns Hartford/New Haven, which is 30th, with about 997,000 households (not to mention many very affluent households) and that does not count the presence that UConn has in the NYC market (best guess, Farifield County is 10% of NYC's 7.384 million households or 738,000 households).

Cincinnati is 34th at 898,000, Memphis is 49th with 662,000, Houston is 10th with 2.215 million; but, the XII is already there, Tampa is 14th with 1.806 million, and Orlando is 18th with 1.453 million; but, U Florida & Florida St are likely larger in both markets than USF and UCF respectively.

@theDudeofWV @dennisdoddcbs @CBSSports theDude's arguments have been persuasive: no ACCN leaves them open 2 Big12/B1G raid. What do they do?

In summary, the fate of the XII rests in Texas's hands as it always have. The decsin for them is if they will get more money and power now with the current LHN and XII structure and then jump to another league (PAC/SEC/B1G/ACC) in 10 or less years or do they get more of both my giving-up the LHN for the greater good of the XII for the long-term.

The options are:
  1. No change: XII likely falls apart before the GOR expires due to the amount of money (and frustration) offered to Oklahoma by the B1G or SEC with several other members (Kansas, OK St?) following them out the door. ACC survives.
  2. Add 2, keep LHN: XII reluctantly adds some combination of Cincinnati/Memphis/Houston, LHN remains intact as such additional are not enough to create a viable network; but, this likely keeps the XII intact until the GOR expires. ACC surives as long as it can get a network in place before the GOR expires.
  3. Add 2, LHN becomes XII Network: XII adds some combination of BYU/Cincinati/UConn which allows the LHN to change to a the XII network and then adds 2 to 8 additional schools when the ACC falls apart.

What is the point of analyzing the Dude's ACC Apocalypse fantasies?
 
Folks, here is the real truth about @flugempire so you can understand what is taking place.

He's some Gopher realignment junkie, with delusions of grandeur, who used to post on the WVU scout board, got acquainted with The Dude of WV/Atomic Noodle there, became twitter friends with the Dude of WV, eventually didn't like what the original Dude was tweeting, and then devoted his twitter account to de-legitimizing the WV dude, and promoting his own fake Big 10 credentials.

Big Ten Man (BTM) is fake. There is no Big Ten Man.

For those that follow his tweets, now think about what you have read on this tweets and think about what I posted in this post.

There is none from any school that reached out to flugempire to say x and y school will be expanding with the Big 12. He simply went off of chatter from the media and web forums.

I am sure some people want to believe he has real info, but he doesn't. He is a fraud. A fake. He has no sources. His entire conference realignment stuff is to discredit Dude of WV. He loves to say Dude of WV has mental issues, but flugempire is the one that has more issues since he has devoted the entire conference realignment stuff to try and discredit Dude of WV.

Thank you Mr. Lambert for your interest in UConn athletics.

"Mo Persinger ‏@hmpersinger3 4m4 minutes ago
@theDudeofWV cause you make it so irresistible. $8M for UConn? Cmon! If that were even remotely true, ACC would have them"

Obviously, the ACC would never make a mistake in expansion selection. I mean if UConn was a P5 school they would be in the P5.

There is a reason the ACC is not getting a network and it is in large part due to the failure to retain and expand wisely. Passing on UConn is part of that failure. Why other fans can't figure this out I have no idea.

Personally, I look forward to the upcoming steel cage death match between the ACC schools for the limited spots in the SEC/BIG. If the ACC does not get a network then it is not "if" but instead "how long until" ACC teams bail for the network conferences.

Anyone else notice that one of these yahoos is using Dooley's 11 million number for UConn's reach?

What's so dumb is this notion that 9 football games make a network. How in God's earth would Boise fill anytime slots on a network. Those stuck with football drives the bus totally missed what the B1G did. Maryland/Rutroh wasn't about football.

BYU works for NBC a national network. Fans spread across the country but for a regional network in another time zone with the B12 only having WV in the most populated time zone gets trumped by Uconn. My opinion Uconn football becomes relative fairly quickly in the B12. And KU/Uconn basketball becomes primetime rivalry game played before Duke/Unc.

Like WVU has? They have given up on Texas! Like Kansas State...three 2 star guys out of twenty commits..NO! Like Iowa State?

No.....FSU just signed the #2 class with kids from NY, Virginia, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Georgia, Washington DC....in addition to Florida. The school is an eastern program...Texas is west.

FSU to the Big 12 is a feverish fantasy, akin to a post about sheep,a blindfold, and handcuffs.

Honestly I always considered everything west of Iowa and Minnesota "Plains states" and everything west of Nebraska, Kansas and the Dakotas the Mountain West.

Being from Kansas, we always considered it the midwest. But that was eastern KS, near KC. Western KS is really almost "southwest". It's no different than anywhere. Storrs is certainly "New England", while Fairfield is more "NY". These state lines are pretty arbitrary.

I think you are right. I think FSU and Clemson will stay put. The ACC has a strong presence in some of the fastest growing states in the country. It isn't dead or doomed. It would be stronger without Louisville and Pitt and with UConn and Rutgers, from a market perspective, but these scenarios suggesting it is doomed are overblown.

The one thing about Flug is that he does have a business connection to powerful people connected to UConn. That's a fact. He may be using some info from that relationship in his reports but covering his tracks as to where he heard it. He may also be much more pro UConn than we realize due to that relationship. His pro-UConn stance may be for helping to publicize UConn to the B12 in order to help us gain momentum in regard public opinion and acceptance among B12 people.

I have no idea what he knows about the B1G and from where he may hear it. However, people that know players in one state usually know players in another.

But Flug isn't saying the ACC is done. That MH Ver. Ever since the ACC rejected WVU, those moonshine boys can't resist proclaiming its demise.

There is zero chance Flug is connected to Burton other than possibly working for his company in a non-executive level position in an entirely different area of the country. Burton has no idea who Flug is and Flug has no insider knowledge to what UConn is doing behind the scenes.

All in good fun and the guy seems reasonable in his thinking but he don't know ish about what's really happening.
