    ****Official Class Of 2027 Recruiting Thread****

    I see his visit is during the ISU-Iowa game. Even with practically a whole new team, would be funny to continue the beatdown of the Hawks in all the major sports. Can see Daughtry thinking he doesn't want to be with losers and slips out Saturday night from his Hawk lackeys to be partying with ISU.

    Uniform Sponsor Patch - Iowa State

    Why are we so low? These rankings look bogus though. USF more than LSU? No. https://www.extrapointsmb.com/p/here-s-what-d-i-public-schools-reported-in-sponsorship-and-licensing-revenue-in-fy25

    We wouldn't make the cut if they expanded the list to 20, maybe 30 teams. SEC? No on that too. Big 12 baby!

    Yep, I am hoping the pooling happens over the objections of the Big 10 and SEC. The next challenge on this pooling concept is the distribution. What you are saying is that it won't make a difference whether pooling or not. The SEC and Big 10 won't agree on the pooling distribution unless they...

    In regards to pooling, yes, I have alleged equal. In reality, there will be some differences. Hoping the Big 12 media revenue gap will be closer for pooling than the chasm it is at right now between the Big 12 and Big 10/SEC. I may have my numbers off, but it is about $40-$50 million gap and...

    Yes, the in-house revenue sharing cap as a result of the House settlement.

    So the Big 10 and SEC may get their way. 1) No expansion for the P4 was in the original bill. That may go away where any P4 conference can expand. 2) Voluntary pooling language may be changed. It always was voluntary but if 75% of the FBS schools want it, it would happen. Or no changes to...

    Big XII options for sanctioning Texas Tech

    "Though most Big 12 schools are struggling to pay the House settlement revenue sharing, these schools have to invest more, like what we are doing at Texas Tech. These schools have to find billionaire donors to help keep up with the Big 10/SEC."

    Here on vacation at restaurant. Underwater hockey is on the tv. Didn't know it existed. Might be the dumbest thing I've seen.

    Provided expansion is allowed on the re-written PCSA but pooling rights stays (say close to equal media rights), expansion obstacles for a conference/team decision would be academics, travel, bloat (not a conference but a league or federation), sports success, regional rivalries. WVU to ACC...

    Not media. Reality. Miami, FSU, and Clemson are brand names, a lot more historical success than any Big 12 team.

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    Not to be negative Ned but is there a concern that some Big 12 teams go to the ACC if the Protect College Sports Act is passed with pooling of media rights and Big 10 or SEC don't expand? The ACC has brands, the Big 12 does not. Teams want to be in a conference with brands. The ACC brands want...
