Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 422088, member: 405"] They made the mistake of having way too many available games. This diluted the eyeballs for any particular game. There IS such a thing as too much inventory. The football side better be careful of this, with talk of more and more weekday games (even Wednesdays for the lesser leagues ???). If you take it too much away from a once a week on Saturday concept, you mess up the TV numbers. Just look at the bowls. They passed a point of oversaturation probably a decade or so ago, and now nobody watches any of the bowls until New Year's Day, and then they kind of messed up the greatest day in football, so even that has suffered. And while I applaud your effort to keep the ancient basketball rivalries alive, if Louisville isn't a good enough academic school to get into the ACC without a real fight among the members, why do you have any hope they would give a minute of thought to St. John's?
