MEGA Conference Realignment and lawsuits Megathread(Its still personal)

[rcjmat]

Like I said, there are quite a few reasons, including very valid political considerations.

Miami has the luxury of being in a solid position AND being able to move in silence, though some people get nervous about the silence

.Agreed completely. Thank you for the

BIg10 is apple. SEC is microsoft. No DM"s

Then the acc is ibm old and failing

 

[Ispyin]

Miami better have a plan. And fast

Miami had a plan a year ago. Still does. Thank you for playing I'm clueless freaking out over random posts of people all with agendas or spin

 

[Ispyin]

Yeah all we have to go by is pages of people on canes insight saying it’s fine lol sorry that’s not enough.

If Miami is by chance not taken by the Big 10 and we have to say join the Big 12 that’s a program death sentence. Really the SEC new dollars that start soon already make it the haves Vs have nots and I just do not see the SEC getting us there even if Clemson and FSU do end up in the Big 10. UNC and Miami would make ultimate sense but I just don’t know.

 

[TheOriginalCane]

So, what is the "best" prediction as to where and when Miami moves (or does not move) from the ACC?

Big 10.

When? Depends on if we have dance partners, for now.

Um, IBM is close to their 52 week high, has a 133 billion market cap, and has been a member of the Dow Jones Industrial Average since 1979, and was first a member from 1932 - 1939.

Neither Maryland nor Rutgers got a full share from the B1G initially, right? Why should we or other newcomers expect different?

because some teams value ADDS money to the contract instantly. yes today. Miami, FSU, Clemson and Notre Dame all do. UNC might. For the Big 10

For the SEC it is different- UNC and UVA might be the most additive to revenue and strategy.

What if I told you that on paper Stanford last year had a media rights value estimate of $45M and Oregon was only $30.....

 

[TheOriginalCane]

JP Morgan Private Bank? Minimum is $5m to open an account with them.

I've got 3 accounts with them...

Because we bring more to the table in regard to viewership.

 

[Cane6]

Big 10.

Would you handicap these two scenarios:

1. Miami Clemson fsu +4th team, likely unc, cut a deal to leave acc and join big ten

2. At least 8 ACC teams band together and jointly leave at same time and avoid any exit fee

 

[TheOriginalCane]

Sole purpose of PE is to make money for themselves and often times bail out those in a position of financial weakness in order to maximize their future gains.

It's...more than just that...

It's also how PE funds handle debt. That's one of the biggest pitfalls. I've seen it.

Not to bore people with the esoteric stuff.

We now return to our regularly scheduled airing of "Battle Royale II - University Island".

Bro I don't know if even UVA fans care about UVA football. I can't see the SEC going UVA over VT.

You might mean Xerox or Kodak*.


*keep it real for Black though, Pompano Beach ******* hollah and stand up!!!

 

[TheOriginalCane]

RIP Pac-12...

Why does this have to happen when I'm in the middle of a financial statement deadline?!

 

[Rickd]

ESPN has no leverage against NBC/CBS/FOX...

but right now we're actually in a position of strength... now that a sense of urgency seems to be created...

there are only a few valuable assets left that will increase value to the Big 2 conferences.. and we're one of those assets..

if the SEC all of a sudden becomes aggressive, we could end up in a position where both the SEC and the B1G want us...

WE DO NOT WANT TO BE IN THE SEC ... ESPN is cutting costs. Bob Iger stated that he would like to take ESPN products to 100% streaming in a couple of years. B10 has stronger media partners in FOX CBS NBC. Imagine the SEC broadcast 100% on Disney +. B10 will be THE CONFERENCE for a majority of college football viewers if that happens.

 

[TheOriginalCane]

Now only question left in PAC is Stanford and Cal. ASU and Utah going to Big12.

Now we just wait for the first ACC team to make their move. Whoever is first will likely have to pay the most money, u less they all act together.

Never underestimate F$U's greed and arrogance.

UNC too. They're sneaky little *****, just like Neidermeyer...

I agree.

But gives us some leverage to have both conferences pursuing us so we can get the best deal for us.

 

[Caneofcanes]

I’m not against the B10 move at all. Get to play the newly added west coast teams along with the BLUE BLOODS from that conference. Gets us a chance to get at more west coast recruits.

Not going to bore people today? Must be causal Friday.

People getting nervous in here…

If it doesn't work out we'll only get lapped by UCF financially
