  1. FSU to the B1G would be an error by the SEC. I dont think they let that happen. I could see Miami, but I dont think that brings the impact FSU would. The B1G dream scenario would be Notre Dame + Stanford. That would have them all giving blow jobs to each other in the faculty lounge plus give them two huge athletics brands.
  2. You sons of bitches. Also lulz at the west texas recruiting pipeline and its impact on tcu, smu, and baylor.
  3. Hearing where they think their place in the world is never fails to surprise me.
  4. Not at all, the people who live on those huge inclines in San Fran are like fucking sherpas. They also happen to be right near china town.
  5. These guys know less than nothing about what they are talking about, yet proclaim it loudly as gospel to their eager echo chamber mates.
  6. That Answers to FAQ section is dire. I don't know about any running backs, but he will be so awesome! The pool party wasn't the cornucopia that I believed it would be, it's almost as if something changed.. They aren't out of it for Simmons or Durham, you heard it here first folks. They aren't out of it for Dominick McKinley, you heard it here first folks, folks. Strong move made for Kobe Black, most likely a power thrust vice grip squeeze combination.
  7. Yes, but in a way, it is also a good market rebalancing. The P12 only had a handful of teams worth continuing to invest the kind of dollars into that they would have to do in future deals. The B12 did a good job of grabbing quality programs that were in the second tier, placing them on firm footing as the #3 conference with very little fat in the conference respectively. But the PAC had 12 schools, only 4 of which really drove the conference from a financial perspective as it relates to football. So instead of having to pay 40 or 50 million to 8 schools that don't mean and don't really care about football that much just to keep USC/UCLA/UW/UO, they blow the conference apart and save a ton of money on the 8 remaining schools while driving higher ratings with more quality games. The B12 represents the only real lifeboat in this scenario for tier 2 teams, which is why it is so funny to see ASU and Utah being such elitist bitches. We will also do it again as soon as the ACC starts to blow apart. At the top of that conference is FSU, Clemson, UNC, and Miami. The remaining schools will most likely be left to engage in a battle of survivor for the remaining 2 to 4 spots in the B12. The others will be relegated to G5 status just as Oregon State and Washington State are now.
  8. If Yormark was smart, he would take Arizona now, and then bide his time for the ACC implosion and leave 4 spots open there.
  9. At some point, some culling will need to happen for the biggest conferences to continue to expand with top brands. If the critical mass number is 20, and a school like Florida State, Notre Dame, Stanford, UNC, etc want in, then I could see the B1G or SEC looking at it's membership and booting out some chaff. They could choose to not renew a GOR for a school during a negotiation window. A school like Vandy, or Rutgers could be put on the chopping block to make way for another strong brand.
  10. And yet somehow you were still passed by a 70 year old asian woman carrying her groceries. If you know you know.
  11. That’s because he is 7 feet wide
  12. The national champions of.... Qatar?
  13. You know.. you may be on to something here. Let's say ESPN moves over one or two schools to the SEC, and then they keep the distribution for the ACC the same. That solves two problems at once. Giving the ACC schools a bump to stay competitive, by my math that would be around 5 million per school. But also locking down the SEC footprint, and adding two teams that continue to improve the brand. I like it.
  14. He needs to merge with the ACC, that is his best move post defections. That would create a pretty good conference and could potentially even open up a negotiation window with ESPN
  15. I actually think this is just intense saber rattling to get the ACC to give them a bigger revenue distribution. A move to the B1G really doesn't make sense for FSU. Now if the SEC is moving undercover and has given them an offer, I could see that being different, but they would be in as shitty of a situation as USC and UCLA are with their closest opponent being over 1000 miles away.
  16. They were, but schematically TCU was running around completely lost.
  17. Anias Smith gaining 10 pounds probably isn't a good thing. Walter Nolan losing 30 is head scratching.
  18. My hope is that Sark took whatever Georgia did against the flyover in the championship game and implements the shit out of it this year. They went through it like wet paper, and it wasn't just because they ran it down their throats. They were bombs away all night.
  19. Maybe we can get every Thomas, Johnson, and Harry to come by and take turns.
