I donΓÇÖt think that SEC has a typical zero sum rights agreement. I could be wrong but I think their agreement easily scales (accretive) and prevents dilutive frameworks to allow for easy expansion. Having a hard time finding the source for this.

I think that is likely true but wonder if there is a survival aspect that is more important. Im not sure how much that weighs considering they are all ranked about 100 to 120. I think culture may weigh more than that though. TBH i have no clue.

Hey Dukie. There's a total internet barrier here. Im just having fun with participating in the rumors and you are correct on all your comments. Let's both not get too offended. Im sure your a fine person IRL.

K next time ill make sure to only post the for sure dope on here. I guess i missed the point of the boards. lol.

The main point is if those teams joined that seems not great for us. And if there is more value in those teams that seems more likely than including us. So the sports outlets portending ...

Dude I didnt qualify the rumors. You have internet powers too you know. The point being I don't think that would be a favorable outcome for SMU should that happen. Unless BigXX embraces the best of the rest type conference.

Twitter rumors that Colorado and Arizonas reached out to BigXX about membership. Inquiry, not a formal request. Also seems to be building momentum in media that BigXX will grab up to 6 Pac schools. Seems like this works against us. If you add Colorado and Arizonas seems like a no-brainer to add Utah ...

Totally get your point and don't want to take away from UNLV. It is a cool arrangement and seems like a good deal. It took some sweat to get it done. But as i previously said likely an anomaly and should be excluded from the dataset. Getting a little deep in the weeds now but if i assume a $100m PIK ...

The problem with agreeing to keep the Allegiant stadium and juicing the capacity numbers is that it didn't require any conviction from the university to seek financing/fundraise. At least it doesn't appear that it did. it appears it was tax payer raised cash, which is more common for professional ...

I see what youre saying now. I think UNLV should be removed from the list. The stadium serves the pro team (Raiders) as well.

Pom Mom, I made the list and used the UNLV website. Maybe I referenced the wrong stadium (Sam Boyd)? Website could be out of date too. I collected the data as efficiently as i could as a fan on a workday.

Here is a viewership list for 2021. The numbers next to each school indicate the average number of viewers per week for a 12-week season.

They did just accel the valuation process.

Im totally impartial. Just been digging in recently wrt Pac value. This is all new to me. But I agree Okie State is now the big dawg in the new B12. But i do think TTU and Ok State care way more about football than the vast majority of the Pac. I don't ...

I dont know. Isnt Pac 12 in the middle of negotiating a deal? And their attendance and viewership numbers are not good. I don't think they sell out any games really.

Unverified viewership for Pac but....

If you include more small schools the ratios are out of whack for under 20k undergrad but you can see the teams with upside but low conviction (UH, Cinci, etc) and teams with large obstacles to success (SMU, Rice, TCU). Highlights how special what TCU did is.
