Just reading the media, I would say Big 10 and SEC are losing the PR battle.
But an oil billionaire who owns the school that the big 12 runs through told me it would make everyone so much money!?! Is the billionaire wrong? How can that be!
Talking national media and respected sports sites. Don’t know what echo chamber you use. Dont you agree??it’s so obvious.
Unless the ratings drop it legit doesn’t matter what the talking heads who are only interested in clicks and views think
Nebraska and UCLA were linch pens of their former conferences, now they are just another voice in the choir. Missouri had a thriving rivalry with Kansas, and a decent one with ISU, who is their rival schools now?
Stop thinking about the athletes as they would be doing just as well under the current system if schools had not switched conferences, that is being pushed by NIL and unlimited transfers, not the conference your school is in, just look at TT and BYU. Indiana did not start winning until they hired their current coach and NIL money starting rolling in, being a member of the B10 did not help them before those two things occurred.
We all know this is not going to pass congress because the B10/SEC will lose their advantage in money over the other leagues. Even out the media money and a lot of schools in those two leagues are really not much better off than teams from the ACC and B12.
Couple things:
First UCLA hasn’t been important in anything for decades, they aren’t a lynch pin in anything except how far a basketball blue blood can fall and since the big ten had Indiana we have a matching set now. Also this board constantly talks about how Nebraska was on a major decline when the left and that it was part of the decision so which one is it? I have no idea about Missouri as I don’t know anyone who thinks about them.
You realize a big reason why NIL got pushed through is because the conferences were making so much money. If your trying to go back to before then a lot of that might not happen
Your Indiana point proves mine, before all this started and we got t the current iteration Indiana couldn’t have happened, thus they are better off. Unfortunately most of the P2 are while the other half of the P4 aren’t except for some outliers that have risen up in the new environment
Yep because the media companies are willing to pay it. They are pretty irrelevant compared to Oregon in most ways but they have a big old market and got the not with USC
