CU has rejoined the Big 12 and broken college football - talking out asses continues

Better than a leftover P10 plus whatever G5 they can add deal. I feel fairly confident that is true.
CBS and Paramount bidding on the BIG12, along with other digital properties is the best option to get us to $50 Million +
Fox is BIG10
ESPN is SEC
NBC is not likely going to get into College Football as much as many think
So cu utah, oregon udub and asu and Chards to the Big12?
Yeah. I think they're looking at:
1. This is what a media rights deal looks like for the existing Pac-10.
2. This is what we'd get on top of that for X, Y, Z additions.
3. These are the teams in the B12 we should offer and offer a better deal than their current one.
4. These are the G5 who offer everyone more money - especially since they'd take years of a reduced share in consideration of the fact it would still pay 5x what the MWC or AAC is able to pay.
Vandy would probably instantly apply for us to be their permanent scheduling rival.
My bad
The AAC TV deal is about $7-$10 million per school per year, that is about what the PAC10 deal would be
Would honestly be best case realistic scenario (minus B1G)
So, an SEC West of:Some speculation here that the SEC is rumored to want to take 4 teams from the Pac 12 to establish a presence in all four time zones, with Oregon and Washington as the two main programs, and Denver and Phoenix as the two MTZ markets they covet..
Is The SEC Moving West?
There is educated speculation out there that ESPN and the SEC are seriously looking at adding four former Pac-12 schools to increase their imprint in all four time zones.kslsports.com

UO, UW, ASU, CU, OU, UT, aTm, Mizzou, Arkansas and LSU
No doubt we'd say "yes" to that if it's somehow the SEC plan.

Pretty incredible how little we’re hearing about Stanford and Cal in all these discussions. Hard to believe the Bay Area TV market not part of anyone’s plans (aside from the tattered remnants of the PAC). Stanford will be fine, but have to feel a little sorry for Cal if they end up without a seat.

Their projections have them at $50M+ already. I'd expect to be higher than that, but not close to the B1G/SEC deals.
I'd rather just the four southern schools go. **** the coast schools. You guys are getting what you deserve.
They are joining the Ivy League.

LSU couldn’t be happy about that arrangement. They’d have an easier path to the SEC title game, but talk about a shift in geography for their games!
Poster with AD contacts on 247 said Stanford has been the quietest on all of this and not in a good way. Basically completely deflated that SC and UCLA left and isn't all that interested in going the B1G route.
CBS was paying a bargain price fir the SEC; there is no way they would pay the kind of money that the PAC would need to remain a power five conference.
I would assume any SEC invite would require CU to agree to like 60% of what most other SEC programs are getting, which would still represent a financial boon to CU's AD. Regardless, without full support into CU football, any admission into the SEC would mean a lot of 0-2 win seasons in that division. A true SEC West version of Vanderbilt, with almost zero chance of ever competing.
Stanford is probably fine with football independence and parking other sports in the WCC if the other option is being in a conference with BYU or Baylor or Boise State. It was hard enough to get them to stomach ASU, OSU and WSU affiliations.
Waiting patiently to figure out when I can cut the cable cord and have easy access to CU games.
(Twiddling thumbs). Well??????
As an expert I can confirm this is true
Apple TV comes out of left field and buys new Big 12 media rights for 1 bazillion dollars
Obviously any $EC or B1G invites would need to be an auto accept. But, much like my acknowledgment that the hottest women alive aren’t knocking on my door, I think Colorado is wise to keep spitting game to the old flame.
100% agree. I just think there is some sense to be made with the SEC expanding West and going after the markets of Denver, Phoenix and Seattle, along with the biggest brand left in Oregon. Would hurt a little bit financially (well, not hurt, but other SEC programs just wouldn't receive as much) in the short term, but it would ensure a stranglehold on the West for SEC and ESPN outside of LA in the long term.

It begs the question, would CU be better off with a full share and equal footing in the Big12 versus a 60% share in the SEC? The SEC would still represent more money total, but I’d argue we would be much more competitive in the Big12 with a full share. I think our chance of competing for national titles is probably close to zero in either scenario (with all due respect to our CSU booster friends).
Crazy if that happened. CU would get a new asshole or two. Would be interesting to see what all that money could buy.

Not as long as they have ND home games. ESPN would probably want in on the Big 12 to an extent-does that look like the SEC's current deal with the game of the week on at 1:30 on CBS while the ESPN takes night stuff?
