Message: [QUOTE="CAtlantic, post: 4331897, member: 11388"] Greg Flugaur@flugempire · 5h ……. BTM incoming later today. 1 Example: “USC’s silence on PAC’s internal affairs have become so loud their local press and now national press has finally picked up on it within last couple of days. They are hunting. The hunt is on.” Greg Flugaur@flugempire · 4h BTM “Media companies are treating the current landscape as P2/P3. We are heading towards P2/P3 much quicker than anyone anticipated” Greg Flugaur@flugempire · 4h BTM “Conditions are perfect for Big Ten to become National Conference. The money is there to make it happen. The power of SEC with additions of Texas and Oklahoma makes them the first National Conference. Current regional limitations of SEC doesn’t limit its value and power.” Greg Flugaur@flugempire · 4h BTM “The only hurdle stopping Big Ten from becoming a National Conference is it’s leadership. How does expanding out West help the Big Ten student athlete? This question needs to be answered from leadership perspective” Greg Flugaur@flugempire · 4h BTM “The money is not the issue. Expansion would be paid for by media companies. It’s no longer an issue. Expansion of 4 Universities is not an issue. Only hurdle does Big Ten want to become National Conference and in doing so change their PAC relationship forever” Greg Flugaur@flugempire · 4h BTM “You don’t find Big Ten leadership on any level, or inside each Big Ten University’s leadership on any level, in private or public, dismiss possibility of expansion for two reasons. 1) Interest from USC 2) SEC’s power to create own universe and to enlarge its universe. Greg Flugaur@flugempire · 4h BTM “Amazon going hard for part of Big Ten’s new media contract is a tip off they suspect Big Ten to become National Conference at some point in near future.” Greg Flugaur@flugempire · 4h BTM “USC +1 has been the most ideal and expected expansion from Big Ten perspective since we pass on info USC called Big Ten. But we don’t believe this to be the case anymore. Money is there for USC, Washington, Oregon +1. It only needs the will to meet the vision.” Greg Flugaur@flugempire · 4h BTM “Creation for most of P2/P3 is coming quick but won’t be finished off until early into next decade. The question remains does Big Ten want to become National Conference in 2024 with USC +1 or 3, and does USC want to be in National Conference in 2024 or wait another 8 years? Greg Flugaur@flugempire · 4h BTM “USC’s silence on PAC’s internal affairs have become so loud their local press and now national press has finally picked up on it within last couple of days. They are hunting. The hunt is on.” Greg Flugaur@flugempire · 4h BTM “SEC making it known internally and externally they could go their own way in the future has pushed the idea of Big Ten becoming National Conference from coast to coast a more comforting position than ever before.” Greg Flugaur@flugempire · 4h “The effects on student athletes, if and when Big Ten National Conference is formed, especially when regional divisions are perceived as a competitive disadvantage related to expanded playoffs, needs to have solutions. Needs to be answered. Every other factor shows green light.” [/QUOTE]
