SMU bought the last ticket out of G5 into the ACC. The cost of their ticket to ride out of the G5 is foregoing 7 years of conference media revenues. Or maybe it was 9 years? Whichever, its a long time. Seems like if Tulane & Memphis want in the B12, they might need to offer a SMU type of deal. That's in the hands of big donors. I guess anything is possible these days.
Finally let's keep in mind as conference trailer parks go, some are more equal than others!
What if we stopped talking about this nonsense? It’s never gonna happen. Our “brand” is not as big as some of the people on this message board seem to think.
Lets say it's the latter, for Louisiana that would mean forgoing and being under to the tune of $18 million over that 9 year period.
Followed by being on the overall plus side to the tune of $14 million after year 10.
$48 million overall after year 11 and so on, and so ...
Almost $200 million more in revenue after 15 years.
SMU was smart to think ahead.
SBC is definitely the best G6 Football, Baseball, and Softball conference now overall. Agree the lore period
Must change. However it won’t until the SBC re negotiates a new ESPN contract. We are getting robbed by ESPN for our product.
This thread…substitute UL with L A Tech or Marshall, we’d be laughing.
There is a difference between preparation and delusional.
