Michigan with the worst schedule in history and more viewers than ND lol.

How much of that has to do with the cheating scandal and folks tuning in to see what it's all about?

As we often see…..any publicity can end up being good publicity in one form or another.

Imagine how many people would tune in if watching our offense didn't feel like 3 hours of Chinese water torture

Have to think the Peacock stream also knocks us down a little bit, too...

Let's not forget that stupid fuckin game on Fubo....

Good call, I got pretty lit that night, honestly. Forgot about that Fubo BS. Good riddance.

 

[Lberry]

Maybe nothing? Maybe obvious?

 

[irish2104]

Certainly would fit the pattern....

Another Cincinnati guy? Color me shocked!

 

[Crazy Balki]

He's a Cincy guy, but he left before Fickell and Freeman took over.

Worked for the Panthers when Rhule was there

Yep. More of a Matt Rhule guy than a Fickell/Freeman guy. With him at Baylor and then Carolina and now Nebraska.

Is it surprising Hartman would still be on campus if he is opting out?

It's not like they'd kick him off campus (not that he lives on campus). I'm sure he's free to hang around, work out, do whatever, and sure could be helping the team prepare even if he's not playing.
Also classes/exams are still going. I assume he takes part in some form of academics?

Congrats to Michael Stonebreaker who was officially inducted into the CFB HOFTue night.

A walk-on at Georgia who gave up a [potential] six-figure career in big pharma to pursue his passion in exercise science. He has the passion and knows how to motivate, working in multiple college sports as he rose through the ranks.

MF went from Purdue to Cinci somewhere in 2016-17... Campbell seems to have done the opposite going from Cinci to Purdue right around that timeline. Not sure if there was any overlap.

Nearly doubling?? Pete Sampson in the preseason was saying ND should try to aim for tripling.

Yeah, I think the old NBC deal was for around $25 million. So doubling that plus last year's ACC distribution ($17.4 million) gets ND to around $67 million.

This year's B1G distribution (for the 11 members who are getting full cuts) was $58.8 million. Next year under the new deal it's projected to be about $73 million (per something called Navigate). So that's actually closer than I first thought.

Okay that's good

If those figures are true damn it. Better than I thought

$6m a year is the price for independence? Sounds like savvy jack is really screwing us on this one

 

[Pops Freshenmeyer]

Well, the catch is that the B1G and SEC are projected to have significant escalators year over year that will take them north of $100 million before the new deals end.

Does ND's deal match that type of growth or does the gap start small and get bigger each year?

One of my all-time favs. Still kicking it in NOLA where he had an iced coffee company at last check. His dad Steve Stonebreaker was a LB w/ the Lions & then taken by the Saints in the expansion draft. Sadly, he committed suicide later in life.

Come on man, we all know the answer to that.
