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

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.

I think Stanford likes having sports, but they aren't about winning for them. Most sites have Stanford with the 3rd largest endowment out of all the universities at 36.3 billion. If they wanted to invest in sports, they always had the money. I wouldn't be surprised if they asked to join the Ivy League.

From Stewart Mandel and The Athletic According to three people with knowledge of the terms, Apple offered the members a five-year deal with an annual base rate of $23 million per school (a subsequent counteroffer lifted it to $25 million), with incentives based on projected subscribers to a Pac-12 streaming product akin to Apple’s MLS League Pass. At 1.7 million subscribers, the per-school payout would match the $31.7 million average that Big 12 schools will reportedly receive from ESPN and Fox beginning in 2025. But Kliavkoff encouraged the room to think much bigger — at 5 million subscribers, the schools would eclipse $50 million per year, closer to the deep-pocketed SEC and Big Ten than the ACC or Big 12. The MLS season pass, barely has 1 million subscribers. I think college football is bigger than MLS, but why should a conference be under the whims of subscribers? By using the term think bigger, it had the Presidents thinking of Larry Scott and his Pac 12 Network, think bigger. The PAC did think bigger and it was the beginning of the end of the PAC.

It will be interesting. It isn't like Rutgers and Maryland have a long history with the B1G TEN. However, Rutgers have NYC, so they will get to stay. DC surprisingly is #8 in TV market with 2.1 million viewers. They likely get to stay as well. Those are the 2 lowest TV numbers by school for the B1G TEN. However, Maryland football averaged 971K is 2021 and 1.86 mil in 2022. From 2022.

The "Olympic" sports are going to the short end of the stick. My thoughts would be to have the west coast teams have groups of road games for other sports and to stay a week. This way they wouldn't have to fly coast to coast every week. It would mean staying in hotels or VRBO, but that would be better than flying.

Cacker Guy, Phil Knight doesn't have an endless supply of money. The deal we know about said the PAC was getting 200 mil as the base and if targets were met, would get more. While every other conference had way higher base yearly incomes. If the B1G/SEC are making 60-80 mil for the next 6 years and the PAC is making 20 mil, how long does anybody expect them to survive that major budget deficit? That isn't 2 million, that is 40 to 60 million per year for 240 - 360 million after 6 years. Nobody can survive that and expect to stay "equal".

Oh, I forgot about the Cal deal with UCLA. UCLA owes Cal money because of the difference in TV payment. With the PAC dissolving, UCLA is going to own Cal a whole lot more money.

4 mil from Mountain West or 15(?) mil from Big 12? I'd take the Big 12. Remember the PAC only needs 6 teams to be considered a conference. They get 2 more teams for 2 years, the winner of the PAC likely gets an automatic bid to the CFP.

The B1G TEN added USC/UCLA originally to have the 9 PM EST time slot. The whole idea was to have a B1G TEN team playing from Noon to midnight EST. I expect a ton of late games for UO, UW, USC and UCLA.

So, it looks like Miami doesn't have a big booster after all.

The suite owners would scream bloody murder. They wouldn't be able to see the field if you added a 2nd deck. The expansion is going to happen on the north side.

My father worked at the city of Eugene Parks and Recreation for 30 years. While working there, they hardly ever gave up any park area. I would not expect Alton Baker Park to expand for Autzen Stadium parking for 7 maybe 8 days a year. Everything south of Autzen along Leo Harris Parkway is already used for parking. I have my tailgate in the BMX track. The Masonic Lodge already has parking. The NE corner of MLK and S Garden way is used for parking. Alton Baker Park has limited parking spots. I think it would be great if they put a 2nd level to completely cover the SE corner of Autzen parking. As for buses, they have buses parked along a large portion of Leo Harris Parkway. Plus, LTD shuttles.

A live Wolverine probably not the best look.

A comedy of continuous poor decision making. I'd like to know what the numbers Larry Scott gave Presidents when he said the Pac 12 network was going to make a huge profit with how many subscriptions? I'd like to know the bench marks for Apple's contract. Now that the Pac 12 is dead, it should be easy enough for somebody to leak that information.

I wouldn't use Wiki for those type of statistics. Then you have undergrad, grad and online numbers. Find a real clear cut number isn't as easy as it should be. Washington is still big, but isn't number 2.

Autzen had a nice 17 year run during the Chip Kelly years of selling out end in 2016. I don't think we have had a streak of 2 games since. Expanding another 13,000 would work for 1 maybe 2 games a season. Plus, there are laws required for parking spaces. Adding 13,000 would require 3,250 more parking spaces. Where are they going to put those spaces? There are essentially 2 exits out of Autzen and traffic is already a nightmare. They have done a poor job of any sort of traffic flow for the last 5-7 years. Adding more cars will make it worse. It can take 2 hours to get out after the game.

Wait, CO and AZ get full share because they are 1st to join? Wow, that is not a great way to bring in additional PAC teams, but when you are drowning, you don't throw away a life preserver because it is beat up.
