    First, when they add us absolutely has an effect on potential revenue that the Big 10 could make or miss out on, considering the share that we would have. Second, if the "networks could already get the milk for free without buying the proverbial cow," why even add us to begin with? Why add any...

    Why would Miami be the only team in the P4 to have to get a “trial run” to get into the P2 when no other team has to? Despite us having better metrics, NIL, brand recognition, and a much larger investment in our program than almost any other schools that are considered shoe ins? It only makes...

    I don't understand how people think our negatives are magnified by x1000 but our positives just don't matter. I don't understand for the life of me how UVA (and I'm a UVA Alum) is so apparently coveted by the Big or SEC. They don't have the NIL, $$$ commitment, or desire to compete at the...

    He doesn’t know anything, he’s just throwing **** at the wall to see if it sticks.

    McKenzie seems to be a clown on a lot of things but he’s right about this. One advantage we have in realignment is that we’re completely in control if/when the decision comes. UNC seems to be a package deal with NCST. Add in the other NC schools and this becomes way more complicated. NCST is not...

    Clown show. No reason why FSUs attorneys shouldn't have caught this at the get go. Plenty of instances where a court dismisses with leave to amend, but this shouldn't happen here with the legal team they've got.

    Read his thread on twitter, it's actually pretty interesting.

    I haven’t met Manny but I have heard about him. Apparently a big priority for him, and multiple BOTs, is completely overhauling the law school. It’s become an embarrassment and they know it needs a fix now.

    I haven’t heard Laurie’s name regarding realignment. I don’t believe she was one of the people intimately involved. However, she does have experience with the networks.

    Frenk delegated athletics a long time ago. His involvement in conference realignment is minimal. For better or for worse Rudy Fernandez is a big part of that, along with Rad, Mario (to a lesser degree though he knows everything that’s happening) and key members of the BOT. Make no mistake they...

    It’s a bold move to think we need a travel partner. The reality is that we don’t, it’s just more of a 1-2 punch if it’s us and one of our rivals. There’s a world where Clemson and FSU go to the SEC and we go to the Big

    It’s not overly optimistic to think we’re heading to the P2, especially with the metrics we offer (and even better when we’re successful). This isn’t to say it’s a guarantee, just that we’re a better option than most give us credit for. Also, If we’re not attractive, then that means nobody but...

    It just blows my mind that anyone thinks the Big 12 is an option. It’s a death sentence.

    Why would Miami willingly take tens of millions of dollars in revenue loss year to year compared to our biggest competitors, with the hope of being the equivalent of six years late to the party? You take the revenue loss now to get into the conference that’ll give you major long term gains...

    You take the short term revenue loss for the long term gain. The Big 12 is a death sentence for Miami football. By the time you could hypothetically move you’re nearly six years behind other peer P2 teams. Also, bold to think the Big or SEC will want to expand with the next contract. You get in...

    Why would you cement yourself in a conference with permanently lower payouts when you can get into the P2? The BIG at a 20% share is infinitely better than the Big 12 at full. Also if you’re so risk averse that you choose to basically kill yourself, what’s the point. Managing risk means that...

    The issue with the SEC route isn’t just Florida. Yes, the don’t want us or FSU in the conference. The biggest issue is that it’s multiple schools. Alabama and UGA don’t want us in because it’ll bolster our recruiting. Texas doesn’t want us in because they’d rather we not get a foothold in the...

    There most certainly are. As a UVA alum myself, I find it laughable that people consider the school to be a more valuable target for the BIG or even SEC than we are. For every metric people say we don’t do well in, they do ten times worse. The TV numbers are abysmal, very little fan support, and...

    Again, despite your wish and the obvious trolling, neither Miami or UNC is going to the Big 12.

    The BIG is the answer imho. I don’t think the SEC is a viable option, barring a radical change of views on their part.
