Message: [QUOTE="rrlbees, post: 184519, member: 96"] It's not just wins and losses. Houston and BSU don't add anything to the brand. Neither does Memphis or Navy. It's a mish mash is all trying to keep a certain number of teams. The BE is nothing now. Read the thread that Mark started with the article about TV contracts. One TV exec thinks the increase in value of the ACC due to adding SU and Pitt may be more than the value of the BE TV contract soon to be re-negotiated. I bet you won't hear TV execs saying "We have to pay big to get the BE, they have Boise now." Remember, the ESPN offer was $111M per year that the BE turned down. That as with SU, Pitt, WVU. Lets see what the new TV deal will be with Boise, Houston, Memphis, Navy, CFU, etc. [/QUOTE]
