This is a great photo and captures what we did to the Huskers that day

If I owned a sports bar I would have a couple of TV's going with classic SU games, SU-Neb, SU-Texas Cotton Bowl, SU-Colorado Fiesta Bowl, SU-VPI McNabb to Brominski, SU-Kansas 2003, SU-GTown, SU-UConn 6 OT etc.

Someone needs to get the Fiesta Bowl & Nebraska highlights up on You Tube as well as the Ernie Davis' ESPN Sports Century.

Comment: State Senator John DeFrancisco, an SU grad, has been the only politico who has stood up to Congel throughout the years. He has never been afraid to call out fellow Republicans like Bernardi & Pirro who he said knew it was always about getting out of paying taxes.
Why does the state reimburse Destiny USA for property taxes if it doesn't pay property taxes?

Lots of tasty info today, including the Corrigan interview and B12 GOR status.

From the BYU article "The conference has cornered the market on high potential markets: San Diego, Houston, Memphis, Orlando and Dallas join the conference’s existing footprint that covers NY/NJ, Cincinnati, and Tampa. Still, the incoming programs from those major markets are all unproven commodities. BSU breaks the conference’s business model as a smaller market program, but with a track record for success. Representing the Salt Lake market, BYU offers the best of both worlds as a proven football commodity, and the No. 33 TV market. The benefit is too much for the conference to ignore."

This is what I have been mentioning - the BE and large TV markets.

The large market approach - the same approach that Dave Gavitt took when the BE was created, has to have some TV impact.

Impact was never in question, its how much value you can assign to it.

Yes, "value" is the essence of a TV contract.

The size of the market is an important factor in calculating "value."

Performance on the field - before the TV contract is up for renewal next year - will clearly play a role.

I hope it works out for them. Now on to the ACC.
