@GoKU has made it clear that the a development occurred very close to after Colorado announced that would most certainly alter the timeline originally expected. Do not want to interfere with the possibility of getting AU and one other PAC school now along with CU and UConn if that can happen.

Patience you must have.

I love him. At least he is entertaining.

This how it starts. People start turning on each other. Pretty soon Boneyard Chaos ensues.

It’s all over folks. Turn in the keys and last guy out, turn out the lights…

Up yours, Yankee scum!!!!!!

Is it master burner or master. Baiter

Maybe we do?

Maybe we have 3. The B1G isn't blind. NY-Boston is still wide open and HUGE. And UConn is, realistically, the only game in town.

 

[RegisteredUconn]

We would have heard about it somewhere legitimate if that was true

Don't be so sure. I've been in negotiations that have been worth more and there were no leaks.

We got time yet. Do you think Yormark quits work at 5:00 PM on Friday?

So UCONN has no options?

Do nothing while waiting for a possible offer or drum our fingers while waiting for a possible offer?

Right? I sure hope DB and company are maxing out their contacts and relationships to get us the best end result. While I think CO and us make for a better Big XII, adding four flagships with AZ and OR to get to 16 would be much more appealing. But a PAC/ACC merger could be even more appealing.

Doom. One can always doom.

Nope. Some of us start listening to music that fits our mood and chill.

What I find laughable is those non BB schools are afraid of losing to UConn in football. They’re going to bring it and shut you down.

I’d hope the governor’s office is involved, It is amazing that the one company that controls so much of realignment is in our state. And we’ve been treated the worst of any school. Just can’t make it up.

Disney purchased ABC in 1996. ESPN is not a Connecticut company.

I wouldn't completely discount Oregon. If they haven't gotten a clear indication from the Big 10 they have an invite coming next year it would be a risk to stay in the PAC without USC, UCLA, CU, and AZ. Less money, less exposure, no life raft.

I could be wrong but I don't think Oregon (or Washington) would sign on to a GOR until 2031 unless the B1G informed them that under no circumstances would they expand again before 2030.

Are you suggesting the State of Connecticut gives zero tax breaks to ESPN and has no influence?

For ESPN, Millions to Remain in Connecticut (Published 2013)

Critics of state tax incentives to ESPN, the multibillion-dollar sports media powerhouse, say the money would be better spent on smaller companies that are in greater need.

Just going from what I heard on radio this morning, UCLA might not want Oregon. Nuheisel said it. Maybe it was personal to him?

He said it's in our state. Didn't say it was headquartered.

Are there people that still don’t understand that the ACC GOR is a contract between the league and the schools? They can expand and talk to ESPN all they want and it has no impact on the GOR whatsoever.

They would need to discuss expansion with ESPN if they want money for the new school. But that’s a way to also up the payout. It’s not a negative. The GOR is only ever a positive to the conference because it provides certainty in an uncertain landscape.

Meanwhile the ACC per school payout is more than the Big XII going forward not less. It goes up every year of the deal.

Wrong. The GOR is always tied to the media contract. It's why they are the same length. But go on believing your nonsense.
