VT to the B1G

[HuskerInSecLand]

okay so who are they going to expand to 16 with.........

Okla, little okie, any texas school. Who is not important. The point is geographical boundaries do not exist in this realignment.

Colorado is an example of them going to any market that makes sense financially. There are no bounfaroes to be locked into.

yeah that was big stretch for them to jump all the way to colorado...its so far from arizona



face it they are limited to byu(which would take a miracle) and boise st

 

[HuskerInSecLand]

The b12 can go from w. Tx to w.v. The acc one end of the eastern seaboard to the other bit the pac cant cross b12.

 

[bone3421]

Landlocked:

Almost or entirely surrounded by land. Having no coastline or seaport.

I find what you're alluding to as laughable considering Texas used "joining the PAC" and taking OU, TT, and A&M with them as a means to threaten fellow members into compliance.

The PAC's options are no more limited than WVU to the Big XII were.

already gave the definition of my term......they didnt threaten anybody(keep believing texas ran everything if it makes you happy)

so you think the pac is going to set-up an east coast operation because unless im wrong we were talking about the acc until the huskers wanted to act stupid en sech

so the pac will take ou and other big 12 schools at not have their tv rights until 2025...man you huskers are on top of your expansion news and info

 

[ForkEmBucky]

I don't think UVA is part of the VT package. Didn't they try to block VT from joining the ACC?

 

[bone3421]

explain it then.....because you and red alert came in here being regarded and talking nonsense

Contracts have never been renegotiated or bought out in the history of contracts.

i believe uva got them into the acc......

One thing that I could see swaying VT to the Big 12 is the "less mouths to feed" aspect. Sure the B1G and SEC are going to absolutely trounce the other conferences in TV revenue, but they'll still have to split it between 14...maybe 16 teams depending on how things land.

The "less mouths to feed" argument holds no water. If the other conferences, the Big12 will as well. As a VT fan, I'd take a Big12 invite, but that conference is 3rd on the list, without a doubt

 

[bone3421]

well from what i read yesterday in the big 12 gor there is a non-negotiate clause or some shit that wont allow them to get rights back if anyone leaves

 

[ForkEmBucky]

Bottom line, Everything isn't bigger in Texas. The SEC and B1G are TV market juggernauts, and the B1G's contracts are up in 2016. The Big 12 and ACC can fight with each other over schools, but when the SEC and B1G get involved, the ACC and Big 12 are both in "sit and wait" mode.

 

[HuskerInSecLand]

It is pretty simple. Geographical boundaries have had no consideration in realignment. The PAC will go wherever they feel revenue will be increased

There are other considerations but geography is at the bottom of the list.

never said anything of the sort and yes the b1g had to act 1st now it is the big12/sec job to go in for the kill and get us to 4 conferences for the play-offs

 

[ForkEmBucky]

Actually, I'm kind of with Bone. The Pac does have some issues with timezones. There wouldn't be much of a point in adding 4 schools from the ACC. The Big East only went coast to coast because they had to. The Pac is better off staying at 12 or going for Texas and Oklahoma.
