MEGA Conference Realignment and lawsuits Megathread(Its still personal)

[CaneinBroward]

So just to recap... there were 4 firm no votes per the Athletic, and 4 firm yes votes per Pat Forde. Nobody here is assuming that VT was a yes vote, but a lot of us here are assuming that Rad and Frenk were voting yes.... Id imagine they probably said "lets hear what Phillips has to say" and left it there.

Side note: im surprised Louisville and Pitt are in the expansion camp. I figured theyd find a spot and be happy with security in the BIG 12

Why are you surprised Louisville and Pitt are in the expansion camp. Doesn't the ACC pay out $10 million more per year than the Big 12?

We haven't been noisy yet.

But, yes, we would vote no WHEN THERE IS AN ACTUAL VOTE.

What is pathetic is how you and the Mope Squad are so desperate to believe a negative that you will torture truth and logic and believe internet writers and tweeters who have been used and abused for months.

LOL MOPE SQUAD. I'll say this: Mario better win soon bc there are a ton of kids I graduated with that dont even bother w the program anymore. youre lucky you have alums like me that are on this site and still buying tickets and donating bc there aren't a lot from the class I graduated with.

So basically the same as was speculated before Pac12 went crazy and FSU decided to make loud noises.

In a macro sense, yes.

Washington-Oregon agitated and accelerated everything, and then F$U's big mouth and cold feet slowed everything back down to at least "2025".

F$U's efforts have been led by a couple of amateurs with small-*****/big-mouth syndrome.

Say it one more time and a little louder for people in the back that didn’t hear you the first 50 times you said THERE WAS NO VOTE!!!!

Congress votes for all these amendments because they are safe because they then know the other chamber will not approve them so they get to virtue signal and not take risk. Until the real actual vote. It happens all the time.

Do I know that is what Miami/dan is doing ? Nope I don’t. Think it could be. Not sure I even agree with that either.

That said North Carolina was all about how fsu should be quiet a week ago, it wasn’t good for the conference blah blah, then voted no supposedly against the conf with fsu. So you all tell me, everything everyone does really means what they will actually do when it counts or nah

And people wonder why people don’t bring **** to this board…why would they? To listen to people disrespect them if things don’t exactly as was said.

All info is fluid no matter what it is…kids,schools,AD’s whomever can change their mind at the drop of a hat changing every scenario…

If you live your life off what someone else on s message board is saying it’s not them that has the problem…

It's pathetic. The Mope Squad pumps out their vitriolic poison for months, and it eventually takes down a half decent poster like hoops @blah124 .

We now have a formerly decent poster who was capable of making informed posts sucking off random internet writers and pushing their drivel as if it's the undisputed truth.

And, sure, hoops will try to spin some bull**** about how he is some independent thinker, but it's bull****.

He's clinging to "proving a negative". That if Miami's name wasn't dropped as a "noisy no", we must be leading the welcome wagon for Stanford-Cal.

Pathetic.

 

[Cajuncane]

Seen too many guys with great info start keeping things to themselves because of loudmouths who call them out that have never brought one thing to the site .

All I ask is if all you guys with info go to DMs only please include Me cause I appreciate ALL info whether it ends up panning out or not.

Everyone talking about TV views, but no one is talking about this. Dated July 3. Happened in Richmond, too. The TGIF I watch games at on DirecTV doesn't have ABC anymore.

Hey, It's my favorite place.

I read these 2 posts in Danhausen's voice.

This place is going to end up like the last site we were at because of people berating guys that have info.Gets old after a while.

Like I said in another post when all you guys say fck it and go strictly to DMs please include me.

For the last couple of months, I've pointed out that nearly every university making public leaks of private conversations is pushing an agenda.

Then the first moment that the Mope Squad gets a half report of a NON-VOTE, they choose to side with rumor over truth and rip Miami apart.

Sadly, even the broken-clock Mope Squad is right once or twice per day. We can all actually AGREE that Frenk knows nothing about sports and the Athletic Department. It wasn't until Julio delegated Athletics oversight to two killers (Joe and Rudy) that he finally fired Beta Blake five years too late.

So who cares if Julio was busy combing his hair when Jim Phillips tried to whip the vote into inviting Stanford-Cal. Dan wasn't born yesterday, he knows what adding more teams to the ACC would do.

Not happenin' cap'n.

Thanks you’re half decent too.

I thought they were rumored to be a part of the 7 strongly considering dissolution (Louisville particularly was rumored to have a BIG12 home if I remember correctly). Also, BIG12 will get to renegotiate again before ACC deal expires, so potentially a better long term home especially if they have concerns about the ACC imploding due to an FSU/Clemson/UM departure

You ain't wrong.

This site is fast moving towards a DM-only form of communication.

I'm generally in favor of discourse and speech, but it starts to become moot when the Mope Squad sets everything on fire.

The Mope Squad will happily dance on the ashes.

They don't care. They don't want Miami to succeed, they just want to spread their misery on everyone else.

As per usual, you're trying to drag your betters down to your level.

All of those things are true.

But.

Pitt and Louisville have gotten jittery lately, what with all of the invitations the Big 12 has sent out to OTHER schools, and the Big 12's continued assurances that they are done expanding.

gotcha.

 

[Yoyo82]

I can guarantee you if Miami's vote mattered, they 100% would vote not to expand except under one of or both of 2 conditions:

1. A team like ND who would grow everybody's piece of pie wanted in.
2. There was a concession made on the GOR and/or exit fee that would make it easier/more favorable for Miami to leave the conference.

tbh, the slurpers are just as bad as the mopes. its dumb. the program is a trash can right now. it has bene for 20 years. you **** right people are ****ed. youre lucky people are still ****ed and not apathetic. the reality is the slurpers **** on posters the same way the mopes **** on posters. so both suck. you want reality - we are lucky to have this site and the others out there for a program that hasn't been relevant in over 2 decades. any type of fandom is better than nothing at all.

It’s really a shame cause it’s the same people over and over that start the BS.It would be different if the guys that brought the info were arguing but it’s not.Its people that bring absolutely nothing other than turmoil to the site.

We watched what may have been the best site for info ever created crash and burn just hope this one doesn’t follow suit but I can see it coming.

Just remember my DM when the group chats between you info guys convene the next time..
