Message: [QUOTE="Phillymoose, post: 4296821, member: 254"] Why would they do that? The schools that they've taken in the past 5 years have all opened up big markets and have had huge fan-bases (TX, Okla, USC, UCLA). Only Okla fails the market test, and I guessing TX dragged them with.. IMO - and I know this goes against common wisdom, is that schools like UNC, UVA and Miami are more valuable than FSU and Clemson. Out West - I see Stanford, Cal and Washington as potentials. As I said, I have my doubts as to whether any of them 'pay for themselves' as an addition to one of the mega-conferences, let alone increasing the overall payout. And, yes, by those standards it is not outrageous to think that SU has more value than at first would be assumed. Of course you take a spot if offered, and I hope it happens, but definitely not expecting it - nor do I think there is anything to be done about changing the outcome. [/QUOTE]
