It’s been made clear to me the ND fan is more welcome than I am. I would give an answer but I will go back to obscurity as requested. I hope SU ends up okay.

I will forget more on this topic then you know. But thanks for your interest in Syracuse athletics. I am a realist and understand my teams fate but you just want to troll here and not understand this stuff only solace I will take is Notre Dame losing its special status. Iowa/Wisconsin putting...

Big Ten new media deal starts in 2024. Big Ten can make even more $$$ with its expansion. Expansion now isn’t about cable boxes it’s about TV deals. Big Ten second tier rights are still on the market. It’s all about the money.

Notre Dame fans have already stated. They don’t want to join the ACC for football and if they are going to join a conference they are going to take the paycheck. ESPN would increase the ACC payout but again they would just have the SEC raid the ACC when the GOR were close to the end and...

It’s obvious ND will push for the status quo as long as they can and then take their paycheck. It wouldn’t be shocking me if they are negotiating with SEC/ESPN for the best possible deal. They don’t want to join the Big Ten but it’s inevitable unless they join the SEC and all this stuff is...

Adding Pac-12 schools to an existing ACC doesn’t help the ACC. The only way for survival to be real would be the 24 schools from the PAC-10 and ACC have a meeting where they could negotiate to dissolve their current conferences and reformat as one new conference but again this alliance would be...

Rutgers and Maryland only paid for their inclusion with cable boxes. UCLA and USC will bring cable boxes from LA plus actual brand appeal to the Big Ten. USC-Michigan, USC-Ohio State, UCLA-Penn State, UCLA-Wisconsin is very valuable content. Rutgers and Maryland don’t bring that. UCLA and USC...

No, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Stanford, Colorado, Utah actually have their own markets even though they aren’t huge. The Big XII is 4 teams in TX, 2 in OK, 2 in KS, 1 in IA, 1 in WV. Those markets aren’t close to as good as the secondary Pac-12 markets. Texas and Oklahoma were the...

Fox used YES to bundle BTN on NYC cable networks. The Yankees got BTN on NYC not Rutgers if the truth wants to be said. Rutgers was the warm body used with the Yankees doing the work. NYC residents wanted Yes so they had to negotiate and got BTN as well.

Here But it does seem highly probably that BTN will see a significant boost to per-subscriber fees in at least the Los Angeles region from these additions, and potentially will see a boost for all of Southern California or all of California as well. And we do know the general numbers for BTN...

Big Ten can get a lot more money from their new TV contract starting in 2024. They could let ND finish their contract with NBC but having ND committed get their second tier rights beyond Fox even more money. Big Ten is projected to get about 1 billion a year with these new rights. USC and UCLA...

I can guarantee i know more on this stuff than you do. I hope you are feeling better.

ACC actually tried to stand up to ESPN last year. That is why they did the alliance with Big Ten and Pac-12. ACC doesn’t do what ESPN tells them. The ACC has no leverage. ESPN owns them. ESPN isn’t going to give the ACC money for no reason when it can just tell the SEC to do what did to...

This is just wrong. Notre Dame will do whatever is in their best interest. ESPN doesn’t give a chit about the ACC. They had the SEC raid Oklahoma and Texas because they didn’t want to pay the Big XII then just wanted the value of the conference. Fox just did the same thing to the PAC-12 with...

FSU and Clemson didn’t want expansion in 2011. They were already sick of basketball first schools. It’s why the leveraged talking to the Big XII. ACC wanted Syracuse and UConn in 2011. Florida State said no. So it was adjusted to Syracuse and Pitt. Maryland was talking to the Big Ten during...

It’s why I hope the fanbase enjoys the money. They will lose their identity and independence and over time become the highly paid you know what they are. I want them in the Big Ten. You can have your 100 million a year. Power with a less money is sometimes better. They won’t value the ACC...

The Big Ten loved slowing down the process. They want Fox to get a piece of the CFB playoffs. ESPN was going to get the expansion as they owned the rights for the original 12 years. This was what they wanted and they had the SEC doing their bidding. The Big ten wants expansion but wanted to...

LOL Playoff debacle? Lol your AD and the SEC commissioner wanted expansion without the rights going on the open market and knew OU/UT were joining the SEC. The ACC just wanted to slow the process down because he saw what it was. ND and the SEC looking out for themselves. You ND guys are...

Terry and ND fans will say why if we are giving up our independence should we not take the biggest paycheck available. Aka join the Big Ten. It’s why ND is a parasite and is the worst. They don’t value partnership they think they are above it and keep getting their way. Why because they know...

My link was from 1999. Showing that Notre Dame strung the Big Ten around and we were actually one of the next teams in the line at that point. Notre Dame is going to end up in the Big Ten this time unless they decide to join the SEC which would be a very ND move. They are going to extract as...

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/irish-rejects-joining-big-ten/#app Syracuse adminstration waited too damn long to invest in the football program. 1999 Syracuse would be invited into the Big Ten now. We didn’t invest in football facilities under Buzz or Cantor. How UConn had better football...

Honestly my last post on this. How people don’t get this. The ACC is on borrowed time. Literally the only move that could save the conference is Notre Dame committing full time. They aren’t going to do that. ESPN owns the contract till 2036. The Big Ten will go on the market atleast one more...

Yes. Because being on the open market is what makes the big bucks. If you had The PAC-10 + 14 ACC schools You could get NBC, CBS, ESPN, Fox, Apple, Amazon, Netflix all bidding on your content. You would have 24 teams with plenty of value. Across the nation. Getting on the open market is what...

They won’t expand to 64. This is all idealism. The schools left out of the 2 super conference will become midmajors for football. They won’t expand to 64 to include Boston College, Syracuse, Oregon State, Texas Tech, Kansas types. Notre Dame is basically going to decide when the end game...

One time come back post for me and I am done. Syracuse athletics are in trouble. Football atleast. DickinMI post a couple above is 100% on the money. Syracuse football either needs a very rich alum to spend a lot of cash on NIL to get talent into the program or we won’t be in one of the power...

Mike and Mike has been done since 2017. They aren’t friends with each other nevermind with Jim Boeheim. Dan Dakich is an Indianapolis radio guy till he went to work for Clay Travis. His wife was the SU softball coach. I don’t want him in my corner anyway. JB goes on Dan Patrick when we do well...

This take contradicts what others are saying.

Or was thst just a tactic that we smartly used to help recruit this kid. The zone works but watching Villanova go zone and then midway thru the possession switch to zone has confused Kansas this second half. I wonder if we will mix in any man to man.

This is love by the national media.

He was playing the game. Like I said. Only the PTI legit like have a good relationship with bim. You ignored the post. When the team wins a couple tournament games he will go on shows of course. The national media does not love JB like they do K. Wilbon and Kornheiser are about it. So yeah we...

Outside of PTI the national media do not like and promote JB. The media use JB when they can but he isn’t this popular fellow. JB plays the media game. He bullies the local press cause he can and he gives the national media attention because he knows the game. Again he was a jerk to Andy Katz...

Nova did a good job getting to the Final Four but Houston was so damn bad last game offensively they got lucky. Kansas is just getting every 50-50 ball. This game is over. ACC winner should have a good chance against Kansas.

I like Olave the best of the first round WR. London has bust written all over. Williams has speed but I am not as high on him as others. Dotson/PickensMetchie are the guys linked with the Pats. I think the Jets will take Wilson. Packers and Chiefs are going to get a first round WR.

Instead of Woj bombs. We need Dasher bombs. People just got their info here everyone. No buzzing around just direct info here.

I want Metchie second round this draft and the weapons are decent enough.

I highly doubt Philly or Boston get caught but you have a point. I would rather be the 5 though and avoid Brooklyn if honest.

Patriots are getting a 2023 3rd round comp for losing J.C. Jackson. So in essence they traded that pick next year for a 2021 5th rounder and a player under contract reasonably for 2 years. Third round pick next year is equal to a fourth this year. This a typical Patriots move. They didn’t give...

Ex.1000000000 why i hate social media.

We should give him a buy game opportunity. I think he is Ben Simmons godfather as well. Like seeing former players HC jobs.

Boston plays Chicago on Wednesday. I bet they tank on Thursday for the same reason. Back to back and not wanting to push the players. I think Milwaukee and Miami are battling for 1. Boston has the inside track for 3 but Philadelphia could catch them. Chicago-Toronto 5-6 7- Cleveland 8-10...

I forgot the Lakers picks go to NO or Memphis. That is crazy the Pelicans could get this pick this year. The Stephen Adams trade is why it could go to Memphis. The East is has only 3 teams below the Lakers. Lakers pick likely is going to NO if they don’t catch SA. Both SA and LA have tough...

Celtics-Bucks game this Thursday is going to be an alltime who wants to lose more game. Sam Hausser vs.Jevon Carter game. All depends on where Brooklyn is. It they are 9-10 both teams will play it out and let Miami get the 1 seed. If Brooklyn is 8th i bet both teams will want to lose and be 3rd.

Leonard Hamilton plays his entire team. If the kid could play the depth chart isn’t why he isn’t playing. This wouldn’t be a pickup with upside. It’s picking somebody local the staff knows. Hopefully we can and do get better.

We want Swider. The other 2 were overused and underused. We also only replaced Quincy with Swider. The other 2 were downgrades from what we had lost. See defense aka what Jim Boeheim said himself sucked lasy year.

We should try to get friendlies with European teams and Saudi Arabia, Egypt.

Likely we are playing Wales. Wales has Bale. I watched them at the Euros last year and they didn’t impress. I think the USA a deeper roster than Wales. Iran is what Matt said a physical team. We have dealt with physical teams in CONCACAF. I like this draw as if we get thru our first KO...

This has been a dream start to the draw. If we avoid the Ukraine-Wales or Ghana in pot 4.

Brooklyn at Atlanta is a huge game. If Brooklyn finishes 9 or 10 then Brooklyn can’t be above 8. I am at the point i just want Brooklyn-Milwaukee first round.

We bleeping needed this. Our ceiling just went up. We got a backcourt. Now put the fullcourt press on Cole. Find one more forward and we can be top 25 good if Mintz plays well.
