At some point can't the rest of the P5 teams just say yeah we're not scheduling you unless you join a conference? Have fun playing FCS and G5 teams until then.

No problem! definitely looks like power 3 is going to be the future especially after the rumored PAC TV deal with Apple. #4 is looking good. I thought more rivals would be packaged together like USC/UCLA and Texas/Oklahoma were but it looks like Miami could be moving independent of FSU.

I had FSU to SEC and miami to B10 w an agreement that miami fsu continue to play each other

This is from 2.5 months ago. There are a lot where I am specifically saying Stanford and Cal should get into the Big10.

You were definitely pushing those PAC teams. What I recall, but I could be wrong, is that you were pushing them in a 16 or 20 team conference ahead of some ACC schools, particularly UNC.

While UNC may end up in the SEC, there’s no way that the Big would take Oregon or Washington over UNC.

but they wont because ND is that huge of a tv brand. ND knows that. also, them being on NBC makes it so theyre always on OTA TV no matter what. not espn3 or espnu or espn2 but NBC. everyone gets it. you play them there and youre on NBC especially

The podcast speaker said basically "Miami is there at 3.8 million and with better play on the field and quality opponents the number will most likely be exceeded. For that reason the media partners see the VALUE in the Miami brand."

also acquiring miami ftl west palm beach tv markets is attractive more so than Miami the team itself. its a lot of eyeballs to capture.

Yeah they kind of would take Oregon / Washington right now at a 50% share for 6-10 years as they have already been vetted and are available with no exit fees or GOR. Right now the COST of adding programs from the ACC is still an unknown. Don't forget this isn't about a conference adding ACADEMIC / RESEARCH PARTNERS it is about Media Partners adding strategic viewership programs that meet certain viewership / sponsor / and logistics criteria. Academics is totally secondary and not THE defining criteria.

That’s another piece of the puzzle that really isn’t being discussed.

What are Out of conference games going to look like once we hit power 3? 10 conference game. 1 out of conference vs a G7? and then maybe a game against a non conference power 3 team rival like a Miami/FSU.

The "eyeballs" are from Marco Island to Tampa, Jacksonville to Boca, and Orlando metro market. Huge full time B10 population and it skyrockets in the Winter. Walk into any bar in Naples, Fl on Saturday in the Fall and there will be Michigan, ND, Wisconsin shirts / jerseys / hats everywhere.

So has the Cali/TOC Conference Realignment War ultimately boiled down to @calinative umstudent , the PAC advocate extraordinaire was right that Oregon and Washington are getting in but he had It as Oregon-Washington instead of Washington-Oregon??? Lol!!!!!

Oh… and @Confidence1000 , I live on the west coast and this one at the end hits home. Get him, Scotty.

Nope. Not going there.

Washington-Oregon had been out of Big 10 consideration for months before they offered to take half-shares and suck cack for a golden ticket.

I've been right all along. @calinative umstudent isn't "right" because Washington-Oregon recently turned more desperate than a crack addict.

Hey, if UCF and USF offered to take $1 per year from the Big 10, they might get offers too.

But unlike certain cali-based worthless-hill-defenders, I wouldn't dance around and pull my old posts where I said UCF and USF are two enormous state schools in Top 20 markets, and worthy of P5 invitations.

Keep it up, gizzy013.
 
so id say the exit fee for now is 120 mill. I'll leave the GOR stuff out because there is some question about whether its even binding.

It is binding for what we know or else some schools would already be out of here (us probably too).

I agree but TOC has said there is some question to it. Hale explains it well and in an obvious way -- if there is a way out, it would have been known by now. either way, once that dust settles, I'll put a number on it if it even requires one. either way, its 120 mil ish exit fee.
