I expect more late games for the Ducks, not less. Fox took UCLA and USC partially for the late night spot, I can't imagine them just giving up that idea now that the PAC is done after this season.

Thank you Uncle Phil!

I'm surprised he chose the Ducks. He was at the BYU game last year and said he didn't like what the Ducks students were chanting.

This is a pay site, but here are the rankings without all the descriptions. 2024 college football recruiting class rankings: Top 40 schools - ESPN WWW.ESPN.COM We stacked the top recruiting classes in the country, with Alabama making a move up and a few other schools falling behind. 1. Georgia 2. tOSU 3. Florida 4. Oregon Top offensive commit: QB Michael Van Buren (No. 23) Top defensive commit: CB Dakoda Fields (No. 75) On the heels of securing the Pac-12's top class in 2023, the Ducks are proving they will be tough to dethrone. They added one of the nation's top QBs in Michael Van Buren, a poised, confident, accurate and mobile passer. They continue to add talent to the receiver position with a pair of ESPN 300 prospects in Jordan Anderson and Dillon Gresham. Anderson can adjust to the ball well and be elusive, while Gresham is a versatile player with a nice blend of speed and quickness. The Ducks are also adding top talent to their secondary with Aaron Flowers, a cornerback with elite quickness and good instincts, and Ify Obidegwu, a big corner with elite length. They further bolstered that group by flipping Dakoda Fields from rival USC. Up front, Jaxson Jones is an edge player with good initial burst and body control; he brings a nice ceiling for development. 5. Alabama 6. FSU 7. Michigan 8. PSU 9. LSU 10. Tennessee 11. Clemson 12. South Carolina 13. Notre Dame 14. Texas A&M 15. Miami 16. Oklahoma 17. Texas 18. USC 19. Auburn 20. Stanford 23. Wisconsin 25. Nebraska 28. Arizona 30. Rutgers 31. Purdue 34. Iowa 35. Minnesota 37.

I was one of those that ran out at halftime to get another beer. I'm getting too old for that, so I'm glad they force people to stay in. It means we don't have thousands of missing fans to start the 2nd half.

Do parents really want to send their kids to him? It probably won't get any publicity, but I can't see the NCAA, the PAC or the Big 12 being OK with a coach encouraging fighting. I have a feeling there might be a phone call/letter letting Deion know he needs to keep that private. I'm not quite sure why he OK'd it being released publicly. You know he authorized that personally.

I love the idea, but some colleges don't like the idea of connecting their university to beer. It wasn't all that long ago that Autzen couldn't sell beer in the stands because of how it looked.

Relegation would be an awesome idea for football, but because it is all about the money, it won't ever happen.

The only P5 schools left are OSU, WSU, Cal and Stanford. To say realignment isn't done, is like saying gambling happens in casinos. Those 4 schools are going to end up somewhere. The remaining P5 schools are done moving until TV contracts run out. Or the ACC somehow breaks their TV contract. I still have no idea how the ACC thought it was a good idea to sign a 20 year deal without a 5-10% raise every year.

PSU, OSU and UO all made an agreement in the early 2000's they would govern their schools their own way. The barn door was opened and all the animals got out. I'm not sure why a few local officials think they can get the animals back in the barn, especially when 2 of the 3 schools are fine with how things are.

The Rose Bowl was never going to be a B1G Ten vs PAC again as a requirement. Utah vs Penn State last year was the last between the two conferences. The Rose Bowl could have had a B1G Ten and PAC team, but 2024 forward it was never going to be required. The CFP stopped the B1G Ten vs PAC tradition.

UO has the most names, but tOSU has the most "starters".

The Mountain West might not be anywhere near the P4 TV deals, but it better than everybody else, except the AAC. However, since the AAC lost their 3 biggest teams, I'm guessing the MW will have the better of the TV contract the next go around. B1G Ten - 1 billion per year, 62.5 mil per school(16 schools) Big 12 - 31.7 mil per school SEC - 300 mil per year, which is only 18.75 per school?? Where does the SEC get all their money, if their contract is only 300 mil per year? The 2nd article has the SEC at 70 mil per school. ACC - 17 mil per school AAC - 7 mil per school MW - 4 mil per school Mid-American - 600K per school Sun Belt 500K per school Conference USA - between 400k - 500k per school Here’s a look at all the current conference TV deals - On3 WWW.ON3.COM While changes are coming, here are the conference TV deals for each of the 10 leagues, for Notre Dame and for the College Football Playoff.

I don't watch much softball, but having one foot on the ground is a good rule. The rule was more from distracting the hitter, than it was for a pitching advantage.

Ha, drop this in their thread. Apparel 50 2022 | Brand Value Ranking League Table | Brandirectory BRANDIRECTORY.COM The annual report on the most valuable and strongest apparel brands Nike is the largest clothing line, not just athletic, but all clothing in the world. It isn't even close; they are 10 billion ahead of 2nd place. When you get to 4th place, Nike doubles the total sales.

That is a subscription article.

It is a conundrum, TV market size vs actual TV numbers. Rutgers, Maryland and UCLA TV numbers lag behind their actual market size, but are deemed valuable.

If B1G goes to a 10 game conference schedule, is the conference going to reimburse each university to buyout teams? Oregon has 3 OOC games on their schedule thru 2028. Granted, there is 1 G5 team or 1 FCS team every year, so the buyout wouldn't be terrible. Years with 3 OOC games USC 2024-2026 UCLA 2024-2027 tOSU 2024 and 2026. Michigan 2024-2026 Penn St. 2024 and 2026 Michigan St. 2024-2025 Wisconsin 2024-2026 Iowa 2024-2026 Minnesota 2024-2026 Nebraska 2024-2026 & 2028 Purdue 2024-2028 Illinois 2024-2026 Indiana 2024-2027 Maryland 2024, 2025 and 2027 Washington is good to go. They don't have any season with 3 OOC already scheduled. Rutgers is good to go. Northwestern is good to go.

5 seems about right. However, they are all over the place in their decision making process. Do championships matter or not? I'm not counting anything before 1936 and the AP was formed. tOSU 5 USC 5 Minnesota 4 Nebraska 4 Michigan 2 Penn St. 2 Maryland 1 Michigan St. 1

Ducks Sign Jesse Zarzuela - University of Oregon Athletics GODUCKS.COM The veteran guard adds depth to the backcourt.

I was listening to John Canzano yesterday, 8/8/23, and he talked to a PAC president about the TV contract fiasco. It really does look like some shady stuff went down. The president said the PAC wanted to get a TV done early, but FOX said nope, we have exclusive negotiations until October 7th, 2022. FOX dragged their feet and nothing got done. Then on 10/30/22 ESPN and FOX finalized their deal with the Big 12. ESPN said they had no more money for the PAC. It really looks like FOX orchestrated this whole thing. I wonder what type of legal action OSU, WSU, Stanford and Cal have?

I think they are talking about Willie Lyles and Chip Kelly in 2013. NIL isn't cheating. We just happen to have really good business people running our NIL company, Division Street. USC has 44,000 students, UO has 23,000 students. USC is producing 5,000 more alumni every year and from an expensive private school in an expensive city. I have a feeling the average salary for a USC grad is higher than a UO grad. I know they don't have a Phil Knight, but if they had a passionate fan base they could make up for it with numbers.

The PAC subscription could come separate from Apple. MLS can be separate or is discounted $5 per month with an Apple subscription. It likely would have been $15 a month on its own.

I think if Apple offers the PAC between $30 - $31.7 mil as base and doesn't start offering incentives until after 1.7 mil, the PAC would have taken it.

It depends on how much both schools really want to play each other. Without buyouts, they could start playing each other by 2029 in football. Every other sport is much easier to schedule games.
