Big 12 signed its new TV contract with ABC/ESPN.
http://www.cbssports.com/collegefoot...w-espnfox-deal Looks like this will bump up the per school payout to $20MM for first and second tier. Last year the SEC paid out $19.5MM per school and is renegotiating its deal after adding A&M and Mizzou. A little underwhelming after hearing some of the lofty numbers that have been floated around, but still better than the ACC's deal (around $15MM). I wonder if this is enough to get FSU and Clemson to jump. |

I heard something recently that makes a lot of sense to me. Can't remember where... local radio, I think.
With the advent of DVR's, Netflix, Hulu, torrents, etc... advertisers can't be sure their ads are being seen on general tv programming. The one form of entertainment on television where they can be 99% sure they are, is live sporting events. Hence the boom in TV contracts. Sports are the one thing that I always want to see as it happens. "I'll catch it later" is never an option. |

Advertising during TV shows...I don't even consider. But there's a reason why you get "Call of Duty Black Ops 2" ads during the NBA Playoffs every year. Sports are a mandated live viewing event. |

Well, they've got to find some way to entice new members to join that poisonous pile of shit.
In the past two years, four teams have bailed, and four others have attempted to bail. Were it not for a Pac-12 moment of clarity, the Big XII would be the Forgotten V. lol indeed |

Clemson is worthless.

Totally agree. I've been screaming this for months.
I would take FSU obviously but the second team is a real challenge. ND would be your game changer of course.... would they like to join up with the "Catholics vs Convicts" again? Otherwise you choose between Clemson, Louisville, UNC?, Duke? |

NC State and Virginia Tech have been linked to the SEC in multiple rumors. Not so much with UNC or Duke. I wonder why that is?
