    Kansas State fans are madder than I have ever seen

    Tang only claims he is happy. Not the cleanest sentence. Claims “he has spoken … and is happy ….” The subject of happy is “he” which is Tang. I am absolutely convinced that TJ is Not happy about being accused of cheating.

    Kansas State fans are madder than I have ever seen

    I’m pretty sure that the source for the Wichita/KC reporter was that nut job assistant coach. He wouldn’t write that story without a fairly connected source IMO.

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    Confusing isn’t it. Best I can tell, you really have 2 GOR negotiations in this case. The first one was based on the main ESPN contract (with the extension provision?) that lasted until 2027. Later, the ACC wanted an ACC network with ESPN and they extended the GOR I think in 2016 until 2036...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    I’ll stop after this. The problem with the second bolded argument is that the ESPN contract with the no reduction clause lasts only to 2027. Guarantee you that ESPN will decline their option to extend that contract if FSU leaves, harming the remaining members as any subsequent contract would be...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    Serious Texas vibes here. One point to keep in mind is I doubt the Big10 adds FSU unless they win both lawsuits in Fla and NC. As to pt 1, who knows - doubt the NC crt buys it. As to pt 2, FSU is claiming what they think damages might be when I doubt the GOR has this provision- can’t see how...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    The key re what happens to the CFP is what solution can garner over 50% of the votes on the board that governs it. The board currently, and at least through this season, has 5 P5 conferences, ND, and 5 G5 conferences. While I think the P5 and ND might have weighted votes, the BIG and SEC don’t...

    You are so right! No doubt they would lose like 38-0! ;)

    Amazing to me that this Michigan guy blames the NCAA (which has no power over media deals) when it is the freaking fault of Michigan and the BIG.

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    I agree and think the Big10 is a less unified conference going forward after these latest moves. Best guess is that today’s hiccup was as much a Big10 member issue as anything. I still think adding the first 2 western outposts were a mistake and adding 2 more doesn’t really solve that problem...

    It’s not just ESPN signing off on it. The ACC holds the media rights to all ACC teams for 13 more years. Either the acquiring conference would be unable to broadcast any home games for that period of time (the ACC owns it) or they would have to agree, with their media partners, to either pay...

    Coach TJ’s Coaching StAff

    I’m guessing that Ben was “interviewed” only because the coach Minnesota hired was an assistant at UNI under Jacobson.
