Non-Key Tweets

So delusional.



Keep thinking that. While you're at it, lets hear some ideas on how to make up a $50M/year (and growing) subsidy?

I’d love to hear how Oklahoma and whoever throw off 100+ million a year to keep the Big Ten whole. Nobody is adding to their denominator until someone figures out how to replace the money cable generates.

Even if Oklahoma or Texas could make the numbers work, I don't see why Oklahoma or Texas would even want to join the Big 10.

As long as either one of them is in the Big 12 (more so Texas to be fair) it is still a P5 league. They can play half their games in Texas for recruiting and play games their fans want to attend.

I don't think for one second that Oklahoma doesn't look at Nebraska and feel thankful they haven't swapped places.
 
Yeah Flug and his BTM "insider"...former tweets


BTM: UC/UCONN/UH/BYU is where B12 expansion is headed. Would satisfy FOX.
Would satisfy UT donors (UT stays in B12 West with OU-TT)

BTM: The candidacies of UC/UCONN were internally linked up months ago. BYU/UH are now doing the same.

BTM: According to OU Contacts Presentations being scheduled between B12 & candidates are turning into Solution driven meetings on concerns

BTM: Conclusionary Data on "in the air" portion shows clear value for the addition of UCONN to the Big 12 Conference.

It’s so obvious, a car wash! You all can make money AND get CR info.
I was waiting for someone to respond with this post! Thank you!

Um, the ACC is a guarantee for us, worst case scenario. Since markets drive college sports now. But if you want to go back to the Big East, whatever floats your boat.

Even schools like Memphis make an effort, while our fans cry and want to go back to the Big East.

You would think they might be a tad upset on the day the checks from the conferences get mailed, and OU's is about $15MM less than that of Nebraska.

Wouldn't be surprised it OU's T3 deal made up most of that difference.

You waited for it, and now it's here... some new non-key tweets:

He’s a legit report who seems to be reporting that he has sources telling him FS1 wants UConn in the Big East, no?
Key tweets are AD's, college presidents, conference president's and the like. This guy isn't a West Virginia back woodsman, but he's not key.

It all seems comment was tied to FS1 keeping the BE tourney in MSG after 2022 opt-out period w/ ACC/B1G10 snuffing aroun NYC. It’s not that big of a leap to say that based on UConn attendance push.

Ah, I was under the impression that “real” journalists counted.

I just didn’t get the impression, reading through the thread, that he’s saying this based on a feeling; it sounded to me like he was saying this based on conversations he had with important people.

Not sure the chances of it ever happening, but between this and the Rothstein reports a few months ago, there’s some smoke here.

Does Asbury Park Press count as real? I kid, I kid... kinda.

If UConn wants to be in the Big East they'll be in the Big East.
 
Even if Fox did want UConn in the NBE and the NBE wanted UConn, UConn still needs a decent place to park football and enough cash to make the move worthwhile. That's a tough row to hoe.
