Jared - Wisconsin and Iowa fan. I personally love the move. Definitely makes things tougher for my teams but I think it will be a lot of fun for the Big Ten. Also keeps the Big Ten relevant against the looming SEC powerhouse.
@@fredfranklin8816 I a Buckeye fan went to minn to see a ge and 3 degrees and 5" of snow during the game. Glorious what a fun game....Buckeyes won but minn didn't give up
UCLA and USC get nationwide coverage too. Academically they benefit too with University research etc. Rest of the Big10 benefits for baseball and softball...start the spring games out west.
@@christopherfoote4643 The Colorado fellow apparently didn't know much about college football (and less about money) and the next caller sounded like he was 11. Arizona caller - doesn't he realize ASU prides itself as a "party school" ? How does that fit with the BIG10? And Colorado has no market, no huge fan base, no elite facilities, no huge endowment, no football legacy, no recruiting base, need I go on? How on earth does Colorado make more sense than USC? Trojans are up there with Bama and ND, as far as tradition, natty's, Heismans, Hall of Famers, and active NFL players. Plus they hv the USC sweater girls (can't forget them). BIG10 just stole L.A. and the entire Southern Calif mkt, which is the #2 mkt. Caller couldn't even give a single argument for Colorado, saying it wasn't about geography. Then what is it? And this caller STILL couldn't understand what USC & UCLA brings to BIG10's table? Ludicrous. He couldn't understand why Kansas brings nothing to the SEC's football table. Mark was talking to a rock. My niece goes to Kansas, nothing against Jayhawks - GREAT b'ball tradition, the very best, but this is about FOOTBALL, the biggest revenue-generator BY FAR. Neither the SEC nor BIG10 are about bringing football losers into their Conf and giving them $100M a year, why would they? They 're looking for Top Shelf names/traditions, markets, endowments & revenue. How do conferences grow their brand (and revenue)? Simple. With Top Shelf names: with Texas, OK, USC, UCLA (& its Rose Bowl) maybe even Notre Dame, Oregon & Washington. That's how you add value. (and revenue). Not saying that I like it. But it's the way things are going - towards 2 super-conferences, maybe a "junior" super-conf in the BIG12, if they scrounge all the left-overs when PAC12 and ACC both dissolve. PAC12 is dead, even if its family still has it on resuscitator. The ACC is the TITANIC, headed straight for an iceberg. Everyone on it needs to get off now, if they can, even if it means paying a $50M fee.
the agendas are much deeper than money above the uni level. It's about destroying the culture and geography is deeply rooted to local identities which is what forged the love of the games/rivalries. It's a slow process but always moving. You watch fans leave the game, it's lost its soul. It's never better to have one governing body, thats the utopian illusion. It's the Care from the governance that matters and we all can see.
It’s true it’s about money. But it’s also lunacy. The Biggest Problem with College Football has been the unequal exposure of the conferences. And the NCAA needs to take a more governing stance on how things operate- fairly.
NCAA is dead, for all intents and purposes. All they hv left is the Basketball tourney. Conferences already making decisions for the best good of their conf only.
They used to do that but the Supreme Court ruled that that violated anti trust law in the 1984 case NCAA vs Board of Regents of the University of Oklahoma. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/NCAA_v._Board_of_Regents_of_the_University_of_Oklahoma
As an OSU fan the first thing I think of when I think USC and UCLA is Rose Bowl and how meaningful that game used to be for the Big Ten and Pac 12. Obviously the major factor in this move is 💰 and traveling across the country week after week is going to be a problem but these two schools have such a rich history of great games against Big Ten schools I think it has the potential to be a great move. The days of the NCAA and regional conferences as we knew them are over for better or worse.
The Big 10 should grab FSU, Clemson, Miami and Notre Dame from the ACC. There's your super conference to compete with the SEC and gain a foothold in their backyard.
And who is paying FSU's $50M exit fee? Or Miami's? I can guarantee you that Clemson is already trying to figure out a way off the TITANIC called the ACC, whose TV contract goes thru 2036. That league simply cannot last until 2036 with SEC and BIG10 teams getting $100M/year. ND hasn't yet bought a ticket, and why should they, knowing where the TITANIC is headed. ND's TV contract expires in 2025, and they're free to negotiate - in the driver' seat - any conf would want their mkt share, revenue, ratings & national fan base, heck, international fan base.
@@glcanon I could be wrong, but I think it's closer to $150M. Even so, I don't think it's that difficult of an obstacle. It would likely get negotiated down considering that everyone knows the ACC is the Titanic in your words. But ACC teams currently bring in around $40M annually in tv revenue. Moving to the Big 10 or SEC would bump that up to somewhere between $80-100M. I'm sure the schools would be happy to set aside $10-15M annually of that additional revenue over a number of years to get off the sinking ship. They'd still be making much more than they are now, could solidify their positions in one of the super conferences and pay the buy out.
All my alumni friends, and ND fans disagree with you. But I don't. I've been anti-Michigan and anti-BIG10 all my life. But $100M/year has a nice ring to it. ND could still keep playing USC, and probably keep non-conf Navy each year too. PLUS, ND could resurrect all those old rivalries, ie, Michigan, Penn State, Mich. State.. (depending on which division ND ended up in). I'm an alum, and I'm hearing all these former Irish players - not just Brady Quinn - but lots - all saying ND should seriously consider BIG10. Football is headed to a league structure, with a couple super-conferences. Just allow ND the freedom to schedule some non-conf games wherever they want, give 'em $100M, and that's some enticement, assuming NBC or CBS doesn't also offer ND $80M - $100M to remain independent with an exclusive network deal. ND would rather remain indy, if the money is there though.
@@glcanon Could you see ND telling the BIG10 they want Stanford to join as well? Maybe they go after a few ACC teams. Who knows how many schools the BIG10 will try to go after.
What happened yesterday expedited the to make a conferences were heading toward and if you’re not currently in the Big Ten or the SEC in her name is not Florida State Clemson Notre Dame in Miami you better be nervous and get your act together in the next 2 to 3 years to qualify unless these power conferences remove some low hanging fruit programs and bring in ones with more upside
Ok for everyone that isn’t a complete southern snob about football would have to include Oregon and Washington at the least and most likely UNC, Va Tech, Arizona, Arizona State, Utah, West Virginia, Kansas state, Oklahoma state, and Cincinnat. I mean if your gonna include Florida state who are an absolutely horrific football team and have been ever since Jimbo left. And Miami has been awful for the better part of two decades there is no possible reason not to include all of the teams I just mentioned. Cincinnati, Washington, Oregon have all made the playoff and/or the championship game. All have large fan bases, good stadiums, and spend money on the program. Quite frankly, Clemson sucked before Dabo got there and with his coordinators leaving let’s see how he does. And without an in flux of revenue, Clemson can’t compete in the NIL space, that program could become irrelevant in less than five years.
According to the Knight-Newhouse database that public universities have to supply their athletic departments' financials to, UCLA's athletic department is $128mil as of 2021. Washington's is $250mil in debt, Colorado's is $170mil in the hole, and Oregon's is almost $190mil in the red. Pretty sure Oregon can pay theirs off when they want, but most programs with that level of debt spent $15-30mil a year to service it in interest, etc. Interesting to see where this goes as interest rates are rising RAPIDLY and a lot of athletic department's have used short term or variable interest loans.
Agreed, some of these were worse than Finebaum's homers. One was a Colorado homer who apparently knows nothing about college football (or money) and the next sounded like he was 11 yrs old. Gotta get them off quick. Or at least sort them out. Colorado has no market, no huge fan base, no elite facilities, no huge endowment, no football legacy, no recruiting base, need I go on? How on earth does it make more sense than USC? And the caller STILL couldn't understand what USC & UCLA brings to BIG10's table? Why does Mark look like he's broadcasting in 720p? Looks like I'm watching an early 1960's Gunsmoke re-run in glorious blurr-vision. At least Mark's audio sounded fine.
No one's getting kicked out. This is like musical chairs. If you're already sitting, you're safe. So the Vanderbilts, Rutgers, Minnesotas, Northwesterns etc. can count their lucky stars. It's all about adding teams now, and you add the best you can get, not the Colorados, or Arizona States, no bottom dwellers need apply.
It's going to end up with there being two "Super Conferences"...for better or worse. It may be as soon as 5 years from now, or as long as 10 years from now. Clemson, Miami, and Florida State are going to end up in the SEC. Then a few years later, Notre Dame, Cincinnati, Oregon to the Big Ten. By the time all this transpires, the conferences probably won't even be called the "SEC" or the "Big 10". It will be either the "West" or "East" or the "American" or "National", to borrow a few terms from professional sports. The Miami Dolphins play in the AFC *NORTH* for God's Sake. I don't like the direction this is heading, but it is going to happen whether we like it or not...
Not trying to be difficult but the AFC North is comprised of the Cleveland Browns, Cincinnati Bengals, Pittsburgh Steelers, and the Baltimore Ravens. The Miami Dolphins play in the AFC EAST which seems like a logical place for them since they are on the eastern coast of the country.
10 years fm now? I don't think Oregon and Washington can wait 2 mos, much less years. They're surely on the phone now, trying to find an "out." I suspect Clemson is on the phone, trying to figure out how to get off the TITANIC known as the ACC, whose terrible TV contract goes thru 2036. ND's contract with NBC expires in 2025. If NBC can't come up with something to match the SEC or BIG10 type money, then why would ND sign up for another $15M deal when everyone else is getting $100M/year? It won't be long. Money talks, or people walk. The price for a 5-star recruit is now a $7M NIL deal, as Ohio State just showed us. The price of admission for playoff contention has just gone way up. Presently, there's about about 10 (or fewer) teams who can even make the playoffs. The rich get richer, and everyone else suffers.
I know this would never happen, but as a Miami fan, I always thought the idea of an urban conference would be cool. These schools just feel like they're a fit. The East: Miami, USF, UCF, Boston College, Georgia Tech, Pitt, Cincinnati, Louisville., Memphis, Vanderbilt The West: Houston, SMU, TCU, Utah, UCLA, USC, Arizona State, Arizona, Washington, UNLV
So much for the so-called alliance. They criticized and hated the SEC for allowing Oklahoma and Texas in. They need to be criticized just as much as they criticized us!!!
