2023 Viewership…

If the link below is accurate, Tech’s viewership isn’t that great… there are a number of schools I mentioned that have more viewers. I really don’t have a school (went to small private school)…live in western PA, my kids went to Penn State and WVU. Raised as a Pitt fan. The Big 10 isn’t happening for you guys… the SEC is a possibility but would strictly be a countermeasure if B10 takes UVA. Why would you want to go P2 anyway and maybe, maybe, win 7-8-9 games in a good year. Heck, a school like Penn State is an afterthought in the B10 and soon to be further down the pecking order with Oregon and WU joining the conference. Same with the SEC. I’d rather have a chance to win a title in the B12 every so often… and just wait until the real NIL money starts kicking-in in the “P2”. All of this goes out the window if, as proposed, there’s a breakaway conference and they start paying players… but will it really change anything? Tech/WVU/Pitt/NC State pay everybody $30k and OSU/Alabama pay everybody $60k. https://medium.com/run-it-back-with-zach/which-college-fo...

UVa vs. VT as an expansion candidate. Greg Flugaur weighs in.
Maroon Baboon • 12/29/23 12:20 PM ET
That's the paradox of the strategy. In a way it makes BOTH schools weaker,

This Has Probably Nailed It
WarHog38 • 12/29/23 12:54 PM ET
A little confused…
Hype69 • 12/29/23 06:26 PM ET
Why are you here ? What does UVA or UNC bring ? Please tell us **
olemisshokie4life • 12/30/23 09:19 AM ET
Something something flagship brand.
IV_Hokie12 • 12/30/23 12:53 PM ET
Look at it as 1) the VA market and 2)UVA vs VT. The VA market is pretty big
TDVick • 12/30/23 05:42 AM ET
VT did get to play USC at FedEx. Whereas UVA and BC were both able to do
VTHokie2000 • 12/30/23 09:54 AM ET
I think the UNC fan base really prefers the SEC over the B10, and this is
TDVick • 12/30/23 05:56 AM ET
Yeah, You are confused
WarHog38 • 12/29/23 09:45 PM ET
Uva's glory days aren't even in the rear view mirror. And they never put
IB4TECH • 12/29/23 09:39 PM ET
Because we own a market area that is the last untapped
VTCALS72 • 12/29/23 09:29 PM ET
How do you know UVA, UNC, GT, etc are in demand? Based on what?
Carolina Hokie 05 • 12/29/23 07:28 PM ET
Previous statements and common sense…
Hype69 • 12/29/23 08:04 PM ET
@Will Stewart@Chris Coleman get this guy off our board **
olemisshokie4life • 12/30/23 09:30 AM ET

Oh, common sense eh?
Carolina Hokie 05 • 12/30/23 07:04 AM ET
Well you are clearly an ACC fan with that kind of thinking.
IV_Hokie12 • 12/30/23 12:06 AM ET
We have far more hold on the DC/NOVA market than UVA does or that
VTCALS72 • 12/29/23 09:38 PM ET
Close
RVAHokie88 • 12/29/23 09:29 PM ET
But Penn State would not agree after dominating the VA recruiting battle**
tk225 • 12/29/23 11:14 PM ET
I don’t see the SEC or BIG taking a private school,

Hype69 • 12/29/23 07:43 PM ET
Its kind of accurate. Its really a contest of who made it on ABC the most.
IV_Hokie12 • 12/30/23 12:08 AM ET
So why would UVA and UNC want to go to the Big when they

Here is where I differ. VT is a bit of an underutilized resource. Joining
TDVick • 12/30/23 06:08 AM ET
Haha I knew this was a Rivalry flame, Fuente years stunk, but are these TV
Stech • 12/29/23 08:43 PM ET
I think it is Neilson and that may not take into account
VTCALS72 • 12/29/23 10:06 PM ET
All very good points.**
Stech • 12/29/23 10:07 PM ET
Yeah he is a Troll**
Hokie83 • 12/29/23 08:59 PM ET
No doubt.**
Stech • 12/29/23 09:09 PM ET
Not a troll…
Hype69 • 12/29/23 11:40 PM ET
“Bigger”? Doesn’t VT have more overall students and living alumni?
HwoodHokie • 12/29/23 12:48 PM ET
yes talk about misinformation
DMV Gobbler • 12/30/23 09:42 AM ET
VT is much larger**
lawhokie • 12/29/23 04:38 PM ET
I like Flugaur's streams, he has good show topics and some good sources**
