Had lunch with Bob Bowlsby today, New Big 10 Incoming 2017!!

[cycloneG]

The Big 12 has media rights locked up through 2025.

 

[JHUNSY]

And our south conference teams go where? SEC?

Are you sure youre not mixing up 'bowlsby' with 'smoked a bowl'?

I didn't sign an NDA, so here is the scoop for y'all :spinny:

It's going to be an 18 team conference with 10 conference games. So 8 will be within the division and 2 rotating games cross-division, and finally 2 non-con games

new west division


kansas
kansas state
nebraska
iowa state
minnesota
iowa
wisconsin
northwestern
illinois


new east division


purdue
indiana
notre dame
michigan
michigan state
ohio state
penn state
maryland
rutgers

he couldn't give me the specifics on the negotiations with notre dame in particular, other than all have crossed the initial discussions and are on a path to being finalized by 2016.

Most importantly, where did you eat, and what did you have?

Lunch = cocaine
Bob Bowlsby = unemployed neighbor named Bob

Bob Bowlsby is a great name for a "tobacco" pipe.

The Big 12 has media rights locked up through 2025.

Maybe if the NCAA and all the existing conferences dissolve we can all get out of the grant of rights!

I had lunch with LeBron James and he's going to commit to Iowa State in 2016, give back all money made professionally and be a player/coach for Iowa St for 4 years before turning the reigns back over to Fred.

In fairness, a ten team conference of the Great Plains schools...

Illinois
Iowa
Iowa State
Kansas
Kansas State
Minnesota
Missouri
Nebraska
Northwestern
Wisconsin

...in a nine game round-robin for FB and eighteen game round-robin for BB would be pretty awesome.

Got a solid source that says the SWC is re-forming. Bank it.
