not sure i understand what you're talking about. uofa v. clemson - had that happened - would be part of the dysfunction in college sports we are talking about today. it makes no sense, does it, like ucla v. rutgers?

further to that point, dysfunction brings opportunity. thus, this rudy proposal happens.
Do you just play dumb when someone calls you out for being a gasbagging hypocrite? Or are you really that dense?

If you are so concerned about student-athlete travel, why didn't you blast your hero Brett Yormark for his (now failed) rumor-mongering campaign designed to add UConn to the Big 12?

So once you establish who is in will that be set forever? As in movement in or out of it?

So you don’t know. I didn’t read the proposal fully. I figured you had.
not many proposals have the terms never or ever. at least the ones i have been party to all have had an out clause. in football at clemson and fsu we hear the term "exit fees." one would presume the same for a new configuration like this rudy proposal. that would be part of contract language which is way down the road.

I would also assume there might be some performance review to allow dead weight to be flushed if they're not meeting minimum requirements 🤔

If I’m not mistaken Colorado Buffs NIL is partly funded by Saudis?

Shut this thread down, Big Ten and SEC commissioners have denounced the super leagues as well as private equity and giving control to those investors.

Why is it so hard to use Google these days?

They said GTFO. Shocking. Everyone but the KSU goofball knew that would happen. And then they had a big meeting to discuss scheduling more games between the two conferences. Lol. I guess the Big 10 and SEC are properly valued after all.

I find the B1G bashing on this board (and ITT) to be humorous. They're like, so you want to force us to leave early? They are flexing for sure.

But in a less-reported story, the 70-team super league was unanimously embraced by the Greater Manhattan Society of Self-Important Gasbags, which approved it on a vote of 1-0.

I find the conference elitism from so-called college football fans to be humorous:

Sankey said the perception that the SEC and Big Ten are pulling away from everyone else in college athletics is inaccurate.

“…we recognize we're part of a bigger ecosystem.”

I wonder how he is absorbing the news out of the SEC/big ten meeting. Most likely in denial.

imagine bp and chevron ceo's setting down at the local holiday inn divving up markets, restricting competition, and setting prices? these two despots, sankey and his b10 lackey, are colluding, fixing their market, protecting their fiefdoms. in what american industry is this allowed to happened where two major players can openly collude for the purpose of restricting competition within their marketplace? lawsuits surely blooming over all this given what we have seen from the courts on nil competition.

Could you please stop trying to disguise your bedwetting behind a bunch of laughably phony concerns about protecting the integrity of the market? In case you have not noticed, it's not fooling anyone. The only reason you're pissed is because Little Brett Yormark is stuck at the kiddie table, having failed to pull in any of the big fish that you swore were headed to the Big 12.

i'm giving you reasons why the fundamentals here do not make sense. in this country, parties cannot collude to restrict competition. the only reason these two despots can is because college athletics, on the premise of university academic extensions, are free from anti-trust law. well, this is now a billion dollar industry with paid employees. it's no longer about student-athletes. it's about commerce. and it will soon be regulated accordingly.

....are you taking the private equity into consideration here? Private. Equity.

And yet if it was three "despots" instead of just two, you would not be crying about it at all. You are so absolutely full of crap, it's pouring out of your ears.

whether it be two, three or twenty, collusion is against the law. commercial entities cannot restrict competition by collusion.

It is not restricting competition. Just different organizations . It is no different than NCAA and NAIA. If they create a different organization and seperate from NCAA it’s not illegal. Just a reminder if K state hadn’t been so willing to adhere to everything. The university of Texas wanted in the early years of the big 12 then they won’t be in this situation right now. Missouri, Nebraska, Texas A&M, and Colorado all figured out they need to leave for a better situation and yes, Colorado decided to return. But look where that allegiance to the university of Texas got the rest of you left high and dry right now it’s your own fault. Also, you want this 70 team league but what about the other 65 or so FBS schools it’s OK to leave them out?

i worked a quarter century for chevron. in what they called 'charm school,' we took a course in the ethics of business and why cheating never pays in america. over my time there in management, i had scores of schooling about not cheating. does it happen, sure. but not because it's planned, intended, or acceptable. i have been in the army (drafted)/vietnam, worked for the oil company, a nuclear engineering company, held public office, and did a tour in the college classroom. i've never found a place as ethical as chevron.
