    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    What's Bob Bowlsby up to these days? With the momentum building against the Big 10 and SEC interests, it's time to keep the pressure on. Hopefully, somehow Congress finds it is relevant that they issue a subpoena to Bowlsby for his knowledge of ESPN tampering after ESPN/SEC (Sankey) took...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    I think Steve Scalise meant to say this: "Nobody can credibly say they're going to move a bill to address college athletics and have opposition from ESPN and FOX the two major college athletic conferences," House Majority Leader Steve Scalise tells @politico".

    Milan Momcilovic commits to Kentucky

    Wandered over to the Kentucky board. A fan posted he is worried that Milan can't handle the SEC's physicality. Pretty much every fan jumped on the guy. A lot of respect for the Big 12, Iowa State, and Otz. Most were saying the Big 12 was better and more tougher than the SEC.

    I don't agree on the unequal revenue sharing, but I am skewed. It would be the same 10-15 teams every year, boring. It would be like MLB before the luxury tax. Still not great instead of a hard cap but better than before where it was the Yankees and everybody else. Get everybody the same...

    ***2026-27 Mens College Basketball Thread***

    In the minority but would hope we would play UNI and Drake and keep the revenue in state. Don't like our attitude that we are above them by insisting they have to play at Hilton. We wouldn't like it in football if a high end SEC or Big 10 team demands that of us of only playing at their home.

    Good luck Milan. Thanks for coming to ISU and giving us some great years.

    We don't get subsidies like other conference schools. These subsidies are tied into revenue. Kansas, Kansas State, ISU, and Ok St are the least subsidized schools. UCF, Cincy, Arizona State, and Houston get subsidized by their university general fund. Being city schools, they have massive...

    ISU RELEASE: 2026 Cy-Hawk game will kick at 6:30 and be broadcast on NBC

    I remember the game being on the Big 10 Network. Awful to be relocated to that channel back then.

    This is Utah's attitude right now. They are taking that PE deal in a desperation move to do well in football for a "Hey look at me!" Big 10 invite. They'll sell their grandma to get out of the Big 12.

    ISU MBB Twitter

    Didn't analyze but I am sure this 76 bracket is allowing more mid majors, right? Yeah, that's what I thought.

    Ok, maybe he wants the SEC to give back $200 million per year to ESPN to allow near all SEC afternoon games, courtesy of ESPNU, ESPN News, ESPN+, and SEC Network.

    Hope there are some lawyers on this forum willing to take up the cause to go after the Big 10 and SEC if they breakaway. I'll pitch in for their time. Not counting on our Iowa politicians to help us out.

    I'm right with you. I don't think Clemson gets an invite. They had their time but it's over.

    TV will be making the decision on the breakaway teams.. Plus, Harlan of Utah trashed the Big 12 and Utah got invited.

    Looks like the Big 12 found their Tony Altimore. Where was this guy during the PAC crisis?
