What's this?

The Channels will be much about the other sports. Ok St had thousands at NC

golf tournament. That would not have happened a few years ago even at Oklahoma State (11 National Championships in golf). Their coach said so yesterday and he played on a National Championship team.

The colleges need the school spirit to flow over to other sports and that is increasing with more TV with other sports.

PS College Football seems to have a life of it's own. My theory is because of the tailgating gets people together. That's why I think basketball needs to start a month later and finish with April Madness. People would tailgate more and arena's would fill up more if people could tailgate in better weather.
