Inside is one of Winchester's post that have a lot of info he is talking


about. There are a LOT of posts to scroll through so I copied and pasted one of his later posts that has a lot of information. Here it is (from WinchesterBUCK):

Was hinted to me that the B1G is showing projected total conference payouts near $50 million/year for members come 2017-18 to UVa, UNC, Duke, & GT. They are listening and realizing no ACCN is going to be created and instead ESPN has elected to 'save' the Big12. This would be over double what the ACC pays.

I believe the ACC is going to be picked apart by the B1G, then SEC, then remaining value entities will go to the Big12.

I'm not sure if the B1G would stay at 18 or try and move to 20. If only G5 and ACC schools being possible candidates, I personally would go after FSU and UConn. I know they are not AAU, but FSU offers huge athletics in a very populous state and they are working hard to improve their academic profile. I would not add them to the CIC until they achieve certain benchmarks. UConn is accomplished enough to be both AAU and in the CIC. They would help solidify NYC and get the B1G into the New England region.

I think the ND bridge has been burnt. ND is not like the other B1G schools. It's a small private school (huge fan base though) that sits in the B1G region with no grad research programs.
