The more this guy talks the more I don't believe him. I could buy that he has Big 12 connections but his tweets in aggregate would suggest that he not only has a Big 12 connection but also a Big 10 connection and an ND connection who are all sharing things with him hour by hour. Its good to...

My genuine opinion is that they consider it a feature, not a bug. From the ACC's perspective if Miami is a bubble team and is their champion, they get their one autobid in the playoff. But if Miami is a bubble team and is kept out of the championship game through stupidity, this means they...

Late November next year would be a good time to hand deliver another letter like we did to Michigan.

In all seriousness, I didn't mean we should join with my original post. I just meant that from a scheduling perspective we are currently in just about the worst case scenario. I mean, we could do a similar schedule with the American conference and it would realistically provide the same number...

OK yeah we shouldnt join.

The biggest thing we lose is the ability to unilaterally do awesome stuff like when the B1G said they weren't going to play in 2020 and we said "lol we will" (along with the satisfaction of pissing off ESPN). That has obvious value, but its exhausting to deal with this crap while the ACC can't...

I'm going to be honest, it would be difficult for me to dislike any scheduling model more than our current setup. So tired of playing extremely boring ACC schools half the year. FSU/Miami were the only schools in the conference that came with any built in juice. Miami has dodged us so often...

Yes Fortuna says it early in the podcast.

Bingo. Our absolute worst case scenario is going to the B1G/SEC with no notable concessions. Most schools outside those clubs would kill to get into them. The SEC knows: 1) We are the last truly huge property that isn't locked up long- term, 2) that we're in the heart of B1G's geographic...

I think it's interesting that this MOU exists and nobody knew it was being agreed to and nobody would know about it currently if not for ND being left out on Sunday. Makes you wonder what other types of deals and arrangements have been made that are not known publicly. It also interests me...

Sorry I don't follow.

I don't think the ACC teams will be eager to help us fill out our schedules in October/November if we just lit their conference on fire.

Didn't mind his entire statement when I listened to it. It's obvious that the one line is going to get grabbed and posted everywhere because we live in a Twitter clapback hellscape, but I agree with about 80% of what he said.

The BK exit was so quick it caught everyone flat footed. We have to learn to be more prepared.

It's insane how when I was in college that late afternoon ESPN block was considered must watch TV by everyone I knew. Now I've not watched ESPN other than games for years.

That's my point though. You don't schedule this while the story is still front page news if you're essentially doing your corporate annual meeting and checking a box. No one who is reading these quotes on news sites or Twitter is getting tte context that this is a regular meeting. They are...

The time to do that was in your initial written statement or yesterday. Doing another press conference after a 24 hour media blitz simply to reiterate that you should've been in is a bad idea. The goal was always to get people to recognize that something fishy occurred. That was recognized...

Isn't it three months since his source (read: himself) was incorrect about a Freeman contract in the range of $14M being announced today?
