The loss of Maryland should have been a wakeup call for everybody -- lawhokie 06/05/2016 9:53PM
Maryland left for the CIC and research $$$, The B1G $$ is icing on the cake ** -- Lead Dog 06/05/2016 11:48PM
Chuckd4vt is buckineer from the wvu board -- ren_hoek 06/04/2016 3:24PM
VT fan and grad. Just want better for VT from its league. WE deserve it. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 3:33PM
Chuck I appreciate your posts and hope Stech and others are right -- FlyFishingHokie 06/04/2016 5:16PM
For what it's worth, I believe that you're a Tech grad. -- Old Line Hokie 06/04/2016 4:50PM
I think what happens here MIGHT make a SMALL difference. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 6:10PM
Thank you, Old Line. Well said. ** -- Femoyer Hokie 06/04/2016 5:12PM
I second that ** -- Calamitous 06/04/2016 5:19PM
If you guys feel that way, why no rant on Chuck for starting Dude stuff? ** -- Stech 06/04/2016 5:34PM
I'm called the Dude on here every day. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 6:17PM
No problem... I have thread fatigue. 😀 ** -- Stech 06/04/2016 6:22PM
Did you know Chuck started the WVU Dude stuff? ** -- Stech 06/04/2016 5:16PM
Again he started the WVU Dude stuff...so if you really don't like it don't -- Stech 06/04/2016 5:01PM
All I said is chuckd4vt shouldn't be questioned about being a Hokie -- Old Line Hokie 06/04/2016 5:19PM
You really don't care he started the WVU Dude stuff? That doesn't -- Stech 06/04/2016 5:31PM
I just don't buy that you're a VT grad and fan. -- ren_hoek 06/04/2016 3:57PM
Sorry I don't believe you are a VT grad for one second, you are constantly -- Stech 06/04/2016 3:43PM
Chuckd4vt has been around TSL since 2002 and before there was a CRB -- Calamitous 06/04/2016 4:34PM
Read the post below, he started the WVU Dude stuff... I was trying to -- Stech 06/04/2016 4:55PM
This is one board that welcomes all schools -- ahokie4u 06/04/2016 4:57PM
This is by far my favorite board on TSL... -- Calamitous 06/04/2016 9:46PM
Agree. ** -- Femoyer Hokie 06/04/2016 4:44PM
Hear ya, but I've read buckineer on other boards -- ren_hoek 06/04/2016 4:38PM
Adding 2 more members would likely decrease each payout ~$5 million. -- Old Line Hokie 06/04/2016 1:10PM
Are they going to add schools now? Why would they? -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 2:26PM
Big 12 isn't expanding this summer..... -- Old Line Hokie 06/04/2016 2:34PM
How certain are you the TV deal wouldn't pay more? -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 2:41PM
Because they said the it would not -- ahokie4u 06/04/2016 4:43PM
Just the fact that the Big 12 presidents aren't happy with the candidates.. -- Old Line Hokie 06/04/2016 3:06PM
BIG difference in ZERO added value and not enough added value. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 3:12PM
If UConn were worth $40 million, they'd be in the Power 5 today. -- Old Line Hokie 06/04/2016 4:06PM
I'm suggesting a combo of UCONN and BYU would approach $40 million. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 4:57PM
That would value them at almost same level as notre dame -- ahokie4u 06/04/2016 5:12PM
That's football TV alone I believe. ND is worth FAR more than $20 million. ** -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 5:28PM
Agree ND is worth WAY more than them -- ahokie4u 06/04/2016 6:01PM
WVU's numbers are public, use them ** -- daveinop 06/04/2016 2:32PM
Gets complicated because ACC schools have tier 3 deals too. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 3:08PM
ESPN has already said they won't pay for more...Old Line is right. -- Stech 06/04/2016 1:37PM
That was years ago. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 1:45PM
Like I said below, why haven't they done it? ** -- Stech 06/04/2016 1:46PM
Unless 12 is needed for a network, zero reason right now. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 1:57PM
So they can't make more money, but they could do it and make more money? -- Stech 06/04/2016 2:02PM
Pretty clear what I'm saying. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 2:18PM
No, it isn't. You mix and match so many things without regard for context -- daveinop 06/04/2016 2:49PM
If you haven't noticed, this isn't a great format for this. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 3:18PM
You present info that I give you as if it is news to me. -- daveinop 06/04/2016 4:09PM
It's because you're all over the place & align w/ the WVU Dude, then say -- Stech 06/04/2016 3:18PM
Not attacking. You knew what I was suggesting and tried to spin it. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 3:25PM
So they aren't expanding because each school would make less money overall? ** -- Stech 06/04/2016 2:27PM
Right now. If expansion resulted in a champ. game or network, then it works -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 2:32PM
LOL on who's like the Dude. So you admit each school makes less with expan -- Stech 06/04/2016 2:36PM
Make less straight up. It changes if they allow for champ. game or network -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 2:39PM
I am asking...that's all. ** -- Stech 06/04/2016 3:04PM
This is the problem the Big 12 is propped by ESPN paying 12 for 10. -- Stech 06/04/2016 1:21PM
That paying 10 for 12 thing's a red herring. All it takes is a phone call. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 1:38PM
Then why haven't they done it? ** -- Stech 06/04/2016 1:43PM
Because they haven't found 2 schools that add $60 million. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 1:52PM
" If I were them, I would add Boise and BYU for football only. Bingo-Bango" -- Stech 06/04/2016 1:56PM
If necessary for a network, then YES. If not, NO. Pretty simple really. ** -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 1:58PM
Simple if you call taking both sides simple. :-) ** -- Stech 06/04/2016 2:05PM
Not what I did at all. Only add them if necessary for Big12CG or network. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 2:14PM
We'll see if # 1 having to beat #2 twice to get to playoff ea. year is good -- Stech 06/04/2016 2:32PM
Wait till a #12 UNC or VT beats a #4 FSU or Clemson in the ACCCG. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 2:37PM
One is certain, the other has never happened. Odds are against B12, by far. ** -- Stech 06/04/2016 3:07PM
We've only had 2 yrs of data for the Playoffs. It will happen to everyone -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 3:16PM
Again you avoid the question. Certain verses never happened and you still -- Stech 06/04/2016 3:46PM
Money Talks and Always Has Talked -- VT Rockie 06/04/2016 12:16PM
Im sorry, buddy; VT does not want branding wise to be associated w SEC -- Mercury 06/04/2016 1:44PM
Time Will Tell Buddy -- VT Rockie 06/05/2016 1:27PM
Because associations with Miami, FSU, and UNCheat do so much for the brand. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 1:55PM
Exactly -- VT Rockie 06/05/2016 1:34PM
University Presidents care way more about the academic reputation. Let's -- Stech 06/04/2016 2:09PM
Some ACC schools' reputations are horrible right now. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 2:17PM
You are still mostly talking about football students, the Presidents focus -- Stech 06/04/2016 2:24PM
Look at some of our new admin - B1G has several peer schools for VT. -- hokie77 06/06/2016 11:58AM
Agreed, and academic $ isn't effected in the least bit by such moves. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 12:26PM
Telling It Like It Is -- VT Rockie 06/05/2016 1:47PM
Points -- VT Rockie 06/06/2016 08:02AM
Then you think VT should go to the B1G not the SEC. -- Stech 06/04/2016 12:23PM
For VT Mission, Big ten is better fit -- Mercury 06/04/2016 1:46PM
Some of the biggest money is Out of State Students, U Presidents tell you -- Stech 06/04/2016 1:50PM
SEC is close enough to B1G money. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 12:27PM
If the ACC gets close to the SEC & B1G, they will have your support right? -- Stech 06/04/2016 1:12PM
ABSOLUTELY. Just don't see how that's possible. -- chuckd4vt 06/04/2016 1:15PM
COOL, sit tight, I will say it again and it's already proven true... -- Stech 06/04/2016 1:26PM
