Re: Rutgers move to Big 10 has been a financial disaster

A lot of G5 schools have those facilities. They have the IPF and the football operation center. So those facilities aren't just needed to possibly get a P5 invite they are needed to keep up with who we are competing with for the NY6 spot and then a playoff spot. One season doesn't wipe out the 75 ye...

Re: Teams being considered for the Big 12?

They realize now that football is the true revenue driver. They hired a good coach for this level. As I mentioned they won't get invited unless they have already asked to be let in. That's why I think if invited they take it. Plus the revenue differential is massive. CUSA officially did away with th...

They haven't yet. They may go but it will be costly. Plus they have no one offering them at this point.

Re: Tulane among a number of schools filing to join the PAC-12

Absolutely, the ACC needs to wake up now. If they were to add the CTZ schools you mention, for say a half share, that might give the ACC more $$$ to buy off FSU, Clemson and Miami and keep them in the fold for a few more years. One thing has become clear--conferences that adopt a "sit back&quo...

Re: Tulane among a number of schools filing to join the PAC-12

Jax, trying to be the optimist, but we maybe in the right position and there’s still a lot of changes coming to college football. I can see the whole ncaa going the way of the dinosaurs. Keep winning, which is something that we’ve not done since the wheel was invented. The best chances for big bowl...

Re: Tulane among a number of schools filing to join the PAC-12

I think we will end up in a conference with remnants of PAC 12 with the best of MWC and AAC. I can see this as well—Tulane in the eastern division of such a conference. The question is: Where does the leadership for such a conference come from? Kliavkoff doesn’t seem to be able to lead a two-car pa...

Re: Teams being considered for the Big 12?

Yes but they paid $7 million upfront to leave the AAC immediately and they are still paying on the $10 million. It’s not a slam dunk for them to leave the Big East. Mora and FB would love it but it wouldn’t so much benefit them in MBB. No one knows if anything put out there about realignment is acc...

Continuing to win at or above the level of last season will lead to us getting an invite as it will bring more eyeballs to our games.

Re: Tulane being considered for the Big 12?

USA lost by 21 to Western Kentucky. UCLA turned out not to be a good team. USA is a decent team and I'm glad we're opening with them rather than an FCS. The team should be focused from the get go. We'll be a double digit favorite and we should cover that.
