Posting History (130)

The big question is before USC/UCLA why was the Big 10

so valuable. SEC easy to see. Big 10 is Ohio State, Meechegan, Penn State with a small sice of Wisconsin, Michigan State, and Iowa. 6 schools forming the attractice game permutations for the media networks. Where is the beef? Nebraska. They has nave done much for two decades before they joined. Indian. Illinois. Purdue. Northwestern. Mayland, Rutgers. Minnesota. Don't remember many Rose Bowls in that list. ** Edited by LocalExperts at 7/10/2022, 7:18:24 PM

Who was your fantasy girl in HS

For 50 years, Virginia Tech dreamed of, flirted with, was rejected by, and teased by the ACC. I always said 2004 was the year, hell froze over.So to go, why didn't we leave for the SEC. We have our fantasy date, until she can't pay the bills. Then her looks don't matter. She is dead weight. The drop her for another girl, sounds so simple. But it is not. ** Edited by LocalExperts at 7/10/2022, 7:08:49 PM

Yo do understand, most companies try to avoid court and juries. Arbitration

and most contacts, specify the venue to challenge and which state law to apply to any disputes. Probably Delaware. That is why venture capitalist force most startups to incorporate there. And if if you incorporate in another state, most contacts apply Delaware law.

Duke who hasn't won the ACC since 1962 and UVA who has it twice since

joining. I think only one outright. You sir are genius, that is right. Virginia Tech who joined, won it their first year. and then several more times representing a Top 5 state in terms of population, more viewership than UVA. Is behind its cousin because the SEC wants Thomas Jefferson's university and their tie wearing fans to come to their games.

Liberty is more valuable and has a better chance to join the SEC

they don't need to get paid and could easily build a 125,0000 stadium. Go with that logic. ODU would be next. then UVA. then VT. ODU could build a 100K stadium in Let us be consistent. Start this rumor.

I have cancelled legally binding contracts before

it is all about business risk the other party will seek remedy. If you get agreement with them, it is much easier

New people are added to contracts all the time

without seeing the legalize, hard to know for sure. Bu where there is a way amd no remedy is needed, easier to add than destroy or tear it up. Plus before the new schools sign it, you can close loopholes and say look we have this discussion with ESPN or NBC. If we do this ou we can renegotiate for this. You would get this or we stand pat. Let us see how those schools decide. And here is an admentdment allowimg us to add without anyoe leaving or closing the loophole

The new Big 12 schools offer little to the pot

They eat more than they hunt ** Edited by LocalExperts at 7/10/2022, 11:18:48 AM

For the ACC, the plan is simple

How many teams will survive. 50. 64. The ACC has a simple plan 1. Do anything to get ND. Even offer Navy 2. Get the programs with the highest media value from Pac 10. Big 12, or G5

Oh yea

I forgot. I was thinking the old Southern. But there is the 1-AA variety. Yes, unless the SEC buys it. No way they use it

It is like Burger Chef

Hardees owns it. But is has to pull it out every couple of years and use it in order not to lose it. Same with Southern Conference unless the original owner still is an organized legal entity ** Edited by LocalExperts at 7/10/2022, 9:58:12 AM

Southern Conference disbanded, any trademarks have not been sold or used

in decades. That name is probably wide open for them to use ** Edited by LocalExperts at 7/10/2022, 9:58:44 AM

Texas Tech with their crazy fan base is clear school #3 in Texas

behijnd Texas and A&M and worth more in TV value than Houston/TCU ** Edited by LocalExperts at 7/10/2022, 9:31:50 AM

There is one way to pull closer to the Big 10 in value

c Rumor yesterday, that ACC is interested in Oregon, Washington, Stanford (to attract ND) and Utah My guess is Utah so they can go nationwise taking Ok State, Kansas State, Texas Tech, and West Virginia from the Big 12. Plus Notre Dame. According to WSJ, these moves would give Big 10 9 of top 30 valuable programs . ACC would have 10 of top 34 programs nail the Pac 12 dead. amd kill off the Big 12. ACC would become solid #3 with the addition of California and Texas to the ACC footprint. Secure NY with ND and add significant value to a media partner (either ESPN or NBC) ** Edited by LocalExperts at 7/10/2022, 9:22:42 AM ** Edited by LocalExperts at 7/10/2022, 9:27:20 AM ** Edited by LocalExperts at 7/10/2022, 9:41:16 AM
