  1. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/34551515/big-12-commissioner-brett-yormark-says-conference-vetting-options-expand Yormark-Big 12 looking west but doesn't "have" to expand.
  2. That was mine, not Scheer's. For over 3 decades it was the Pac 10. True. Bay Area is still there, but it was really about LA.
  3. Jason Scheer on twitter (AZ blogger). Pac 10 apologists again getting defensive. "At this point I’m assuming it’s Utah. Arizona and ASU aren’t talking to John and I feel very confident in saying that. Quote Tweet John Canzano @johncanzanobft · 1h Big 12's latest expansion jab falls flat in Pac-12 footprint. Said one of the Pac-12's current four corners ADs: “I have no idea what he’s talking about. He just continues to throw stuff out to disrupt. Seems like some level of desperation.” Column: https://bit.ly/3excWNO"
  4. Washington St. isn't west coast. Its basically in Idaho. Idaho shared their stadium for a season or two. I think U of Idaho and Washington St. are only something like 8 miles apart.
  5. https://collegefootballplayoff.com/sports/2017/9/20/revenue-distribution.aspx the current payout. I imagine the academic nonsense will go away. For the 2022-23 academic year: Each conference will receive $300,000 for each of its schools when the school’s football team meets the NCAA’s APR for participation in a postseason football game. Each independent institution will also receive $300,000 when its football team meets that standard. A conference will receive $6 million for each team that is selected for a Playoff Semifinal. There will be no additional distribution to conferences whose teams qualify for the national championship game. A conference will receive $4 million for each team that plays in a non-playoff bowl under the arrangement. Each conference whose team participates in a Playoff Semifinal, Cotton, Fiesta, or Peach bowls, or in the national championship game will receive $2.74 million to cover expenses for each game. Based on calculations from the 2021-22 season, the following distributions were made in the spring of 2022 (Estimates for the 2022-23 season will be finalized following the 2023 CFP National Championship.): Each of the 10 conferences received a base amount. For conferences that have contracts for their champions to participate in the Orange, Rose, or Sugar bowls, the base combined with the full academic performance pool was approximately $74 million for each conference. The five conferences that do not have contracts for their champions to participate in the Orange, Rose or Sugar bowls received approximately $95 million in aggregate (full academic pool plus base). The conferences distribute these funds as they choose. Notre Dame received a payment of $3.55 million by meeting the APR standard; the other six independents shared $1.88 million. Certain conferences in the Football Championship Subdivision received approximately $2.96 million in aggregate.
  6. by 75/25, I am assuming 25% is paid based on performance, 1 share for each game played by one of your schools. There would be 22 total shares (11 teams eliminated leading to one champion, 8 for the 4 first round games, 8 for the quarterfinals, 4 for semifinals, 2 for finals).
  7. If the split is 80% A5, 20% other and 75/25 performance, it will be worth about 42 million a year for Notre Dame if they get in the playoff every other year. If you assume 3.75 bids on average for the SEC and Big 10 (and assume equal performance after the first round), it will be about $466 million a year for each of those two conferences, or about $30 million per school. The amount before the performance bonus will be about $19 million per school for the A5.
  8. I don't see any way they don't weight the split by number of conference members. The Big 10 and SEC aren't going to allow the Pac 10 to get 60% more per member. Now they may well split between the A5 evenly, but on a per member basis, not per conference. More likely, there is some monetary incentive to get more members in the playoff. I don't think it will be heavily weighted that way, but right now, its almost incidental. I think its something like $4-6 million for the 2nd team. I think it will be something like 75% of the A5 share going to the conferences equally (based on # of members) and 25% based on games played.
  9. The current Big 12 is stronger in football than the current Big 10 even with Ohio St. in most years. The bottom of the Big 10 is pretty weak.
  10. I'm not convinced about Sark being better than a 7 win coach. But I do believe in Patterson.
  11. Davy Crockett got executed in the Alamo after honorably surrendering after killing massive numbers of Santa Anna's army. So how does that apply to the Longhorns?
  12. Definitely looks better (other than the kicking game which isn't even good HS level). But again, its only ULM. If we look bad next week, that still won't be much of an indicator. I still think Oregon is pretty solid and they lost 49-3 to Georgia. The games after Alabama will tell how much better we are.
  13. Guess I'm blocking out 2017 when we were 0-4 in one score games. He was 13-8 after that.
  14. Hermann wouldn't have lost to Kansas for one. Sarkasian hadn't been a head coach in 6 years. His best season at Washington was 8-4 and career was 34-29. USC he was 9-4 and 3-2. He hasn't proven he can win at the top level. We'll see if he learned at Alabama. ULM is not much of a test. But then a loss to Alabama isn't much of a test either. As for whether Sark is better than 2006+ Mack in recruiting, time will tell. I hope so. He looks really good on paper. But then Mack looked really good on paper too.
  15. If all that is left is Oregon St. and Washington St., the MWC is stronger. There is no economic disparity. The only question would be whether some of the MWC schools want to dump some of the others.
  16. It was both. How did Hermann win most of his close games with the same personnel? How did he consistently win close games in his career at Texas? Sark wasn't good at it last year. Sark did a poor job. He can recruit. It remains to be seen if he can coach.
  17. That's the Big 12. It was a first down, so the whole review didn't really matter.
  18. Card didn't look good, but in fairness, the people playing line at that time looked awful and didn't give him time.
  19. Well sometimes I was trying to figure out what happened and they would never tell you, like with that nearly blocked punt. They were rambling about something else.
  20. It happened a number of times. Robinson lost yards on his 2nd carry just after the big gain.
  21. You mention the downfield blocking. Watch some video of that 2005 team. I remember seeing them 2 or 3 years back and thinking, "we don't do that anymore."
  22. And Sarkasian did a lousy job coaching in close games. We'll see if he's learning.
  23. What makes that really hilarious is how the LHN ran about 10 of those commercials with the really nice parking enforcement guy! I guess he will smile when he give Ewers back his car.
  24. Didn't he give up the lone TD by being out of position?
