That would be awesome, but I’m curious how UNC and Duke will do with their new hires. Neither is particularly impressive.

Just like movies, Disney is trying to own everything.

Here’s the beauty: they don’t even need to own all the conferences. They’ll have it all in just two leagues, which span the growth areas of the USA


Every FB recruit will want to play SEC, every BB in the ACC. They’ll dominate the sports cable ratings from Labor Day thru Easter.



Every other league is f****. But who’s got the most to lose? The 2 Fox properties. Hence the “mega merger” talk. (It won’t save them anyway)

It's gonna get interesting to see what unfolds

I’m going so off the radar with this but here goes:

Leagues will swap Kentucky + Vandy (for Clemson and Florida State).

It’s crazy. But you following my logic?

I see what you're getting at

Monster basketball and football conferences. I like it.

So does Disney. In the “war for content” they plan to win.

ACC share: $28m
BIG share: $54m


So the cost to acquire Kansas is *half* for the ACC what it is for the BIG based on the TV contract per school. Imagine a company which could borrow at half the interest rate of its competitor.


Who gets the purchase?

Kids may die on the field if that happened.

Fascinating shit. Thanks PB. We’ll see how it shakes out.

Ambien is the devil. It was a nightmare for my wife getting off that crap, but worth it because of the shitty side effects.

I've hated Maryland fans since 2002 and we played them in the FF.

How would you incentivize Kentucky to leave the SEC though?

"Hi there, my name is Bob. I'm your conference recruitment officer. Come to the ACC and you won't have to play Alabama in football. On the flip side, you also won't have to play Alabama in Basketball, so it's a Win-Win."
