I find it interesting that the guaranteed money from Apple is ranged between 15 and 22 million. That's a wide range.

Today is the ultimate CF server stress test with the amount of major news hitting both inside and outside the cave. Fire up the auxiliary nuclear reactor.

Could you imagine if it were the big 12 trying to stay afloat today? That + news of the gambling would surely lead to a nuclear meltdown on this site.

Instead, the PAC 12 is providing some entertainment and a distraction. Iowa State will recover quickly from losing Dekkers. It wasn’t like his performance last year was outstanding anyway. Too many turnovers, especially in the red zone. The offense was not good at all last year. New OC, new QB, new OL coach, and Iowa State is in a conference which is growing. Plenty of reasons to be optimistic tonight for Iowa State fans

Meanwhile in the ACC, more rumblings that FSU may be getting closer to challenging the Grant of Rights to make a move


1. Go ahead and try
2. That kinda behavior doesn’t exactly sell yourselves to another conference. “We’re not letting the contracts and agreements we signed get in the way of what we want to do” that is such Florida and I’m sure the other conferences presidents love to hear that.

This is not something I can imagine the media partners want. If they successfully break the GOR then we're at a new level of Thunderdome

Have we heard knocks on Rocco?

I've only heard that he can sling it, has looked good in practice, and is the son of a coach.

Could be a fun ride

It was said they were given 3 options. Low base, high incentives, Mid base mid incentives, high base low incentives.

I would guess the low base is 15, the high is 22.

And from what I have read is the incentives if close to maxed out could get to around the Big 12 deal. But everything has to be fairly maxed out to get to that rate, unlikely and risky.

Add as many as teams as possible that ESPN/FOX will pay an equal share of 32 million. Teams are going to continue jump ship before every 6 to 10 year. The more teams , lesser the impact.

I know it is not popular , but I wish there was eventually streaming option for College Power conference for Basketball/Football. Even old folks now have apple tv or Netflix.

The only reason I have YouTube tv is for college football and basketball

Would cancel it, it they gave me all the college football and basketball on espnplus/foxplus for 19.99 :)

So it's guaranteed 15 million. Only the floor is guaranteed.

It would cost a hell of a lot more than that a month lol.
