Not that these non-key tweets should ever be taken with more than a grain of salt, but that uninformed @gillopez3 dope is from Houston. A bit of sour grapes there that UH has no chance.

Just another moron who thinks "it's all about football". We know it is about money. Football is easier for the conferences to monetize, because a lot of the basketball money is monetized by the NCAA. But basketball, overall, makes nearly as much as football. Meanwhile, UConn is the only university in the country that has a women's basketball team that can bring real money.

How long has the Dude been saying that no team brings value to Big 12, but suddenly they all do?

Because his own stupid biases and opinions suggested that loser schools in the American couldn't possibly bring any value. Then the facts came out that, shockingly, the actual gap between the best G5 schools and the mid-level P5 schools is...not much of a gap or nonexistent.

Any analysis of flight travel times should be non-stop vs transfers. Although this matters less for FB as most teams charter.

BDL has direct flights to Dallas, Houston, Cincinnati, Denver, Pittsburgh. The rest of the B12 would be an easy connection from Dallas, Chicago or Atlanta.

Oklahoma would probably be the toughest if you couldn't transfer directly to the regional airports near campuses. The difference for them today is a 1 hr flight vs a 3 hour flight. I'm sure they also send the equipment truck ahead by ground, so that is an additional hassle. Hate to see KSU show up without uniforms because the truck got stuck in a snow bank in Illinois. But then again they may load the plane for long trips.

national games on OTA TV?

Like ABC..which is linked with ESPN through Disney?

I do not know how CBS, NBC, ABC do in terms of national viewers a year vs ESPN...but I don't believe that ESPN is "getting its ass kicked".

FSU vs Louisville plays on ABC on Sept. 17.

Ranked matchups highlight '16 ABC/ESPN kickoff

Don't know about ESPN getting their ass kicked, but putting multiple games on multiple broadcast networks (Fox and NBC/ABC) is a big thing for the Big10.

I just had a back and forth with this annoying Memphis fan Michael S. Aviotti this morning on twitter...he stopped with his BS when I brought up Memphis football pre-Fuente/Lynch. Another loud mouth bites the dust.

I can't wait for the details of the BHV results for Big12 expansion to leak out. All these "if UConn was a P5 team they'd be in the ACC" trolls are going to look really stupid. It is hard to argue with an objective numbers based assessment.

I am sure the ACC is dreading the BHV study if it concludes UConn is more valuable than many of their current properties to include several of their expansion choices. The ACC is losing for a reason...partly weaker properties, but partly bad decisions...foregoing UConn was one of those bad decision....the BHV research will likely show that.

The narrative of UConn value is already changing. I'm hopeful that the BHV report pushes that further. In the end, though, until we are no longer a G5 program.... we're a G5 program.

I've said this before but the notion that "the way things are is the way things will always be" is the safe harbor of little minds.

Totally agree...either you are P5 or you are not...that said, I am very hopeful UConn's shelf life on the G5 level will get a lot shorter once its market value gets identified via the BHV results.

It is amazing how many people do not understand the history of the ACC yet view its decisions as impartial and well grounded. That is the worst thing the ACC ever did to UConn. Overcoming the bias that the teams that remain G5 are G5 for a reason is a major hurdle. The good news is when it comes to UConn I do not think it is true.

Hopefully the Big12 expansion data will show the value of UConn regardless of whether the Big12 expands. An impartial number based assessment of UConn can only help our cause.

I agree with you on those bad decisions...imagine if the ACC had taken UConn and Rutgers. RU still may have left for the B1G BUT that would have left Pitt.Louisville for the B-12. They would be at 12 right now and each conference would own some really good rivalries gained through expansion.

I got blocked by both Michael Aviotti & TigerBronco this morning. Kind of ironic they blocked me after I tweeted the link to the Memphis review that was done in the Austin paper that @huskymedic put up earlier. Thanks for that Medic!! As Ice Cube says in his song...Today Was A Good Day!!!!

Love the effort

B12 will not vote to expand next Saturday but they might decide to winnow down the candidates to 2.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 5h5 hours ago
Texas is open to the BHV report but the assumption of an $6-8m threshold for viability appears valid. Timeframe to threshold is a factor.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 5h5 hours ago
Most media saying ESPN isn't interest in a B12N are wrong. They are basing that on opinion & assumption - not fact.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 5h5 hours ago
ESPN's view is that a small B12N profit is better than a LHN loss.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 5h5 hours ago
@CincyP5orbust If your ESPN would you rather earn $.02 on LHN or $.60 on B12N? Have 20M on LHN or 50M on B12N?

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 5h5 hours ago
BHV will say current B12 market for a network is 20-25m without expansion. Previously thought to be 13m.

Mountaineer Steve‏@Mountaineer_Ste
@theDudeofWV 20-25M what? total per year, per team...?

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV
@Mountaineer_Ste the 20-25m is estimated cable homes in media footprint.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 5h5 hours ago
@caingle LHN is already in 20m homes. Expansion to 14 could move that 34m or more.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 5h5 hours ago
@caingle I understand that ESPN has already informed Fenves they would support B12N.

@caingle Its going to be ego first for Texas & money second in regards to LHN. Money seems to be there.

@theDudeofWV if espn claims they don't have money to make ACC network, how the hell could they do b12?

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 5h5 hours ago
@Ruknighttime With a B12N ESPN would just convert LHN into B12N. Add subscribers & charge more.

CHOP ‏@Ruknighttime · 4h4 hours ago
@theDudeofWV and why would Texas give up LHN control and money?

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 3h3 hours ago
@Ruknighttime Texas would not give up a dime.

@caingle If a network is really an option I don't see how large market schools are left out.
