This is all Texas’ fault

If their tv deal wasn’t killing the big xii, we’d still be there and we’d have been back to domination long ago.
Freaking tv rights, payouts, and the like. Isn’t right.
Never should have gone to the PAC 12. Only good thing was the revamping of the facilities, but we’ve never recovered.
Heck, move to the mountain west and make the csu game actually mean something.

GaAH!

Have you forgotten what this team looked like from 2006-2010?

Our issues go way beyond conference affiliation, in fact, they have nothing to do with what conference we're in.

You’s is talkin’ loco! **** the mountain west!
 
It really isn’t. We made two disastrous and one meh hire at a crucial time when getting left behind was more disastrous than ever because we had incompetent idiots in charge.

We’re in this situation because we put ourselves there. It’s not UT’s fault, it isn’t the media’s fault, it isn’t Larry Scott’s fault. We botched several crucial decisions, got left behind as a result and now find ourselves in a position where catching up requires massive outside help.

SOME 22 million behind evey fricking year in tv revenue. You don't think Mel would still be here if he and his asst coaches were getting more coin? The only way money issues for not just CU but the PAC gets fixed is through TV deals, this crap has to be fixed now or the PAC becomes nothing more than the MWC. And no way in what Mel did is okay
 
Also, the PAC is one of hte few divisions where you cannot subscribe to a streaming service WITHOUT having a TV provider.
That is so old school it's not even funny.

Yeah.?

Well, I got news for you: Nebraska still leaves. Missouri and A&M also leave. We'd still have to go to Manhattan, Ames, and Stillwater. And the uneven revenue sharing stays unequal. But we do get to play Rice and Baylor and or Houston or whoever the **** else is in that **** conference.

I put Larry Scott out front for today’s revenue shortfall.

If we'd stayed in the BigXII we'd have even less money. Ideally, a move to the Big10 or SEC would be better for us financially but as far as I can remember they didnt offer us. Its hard to think of CU as part of the South or the Great Lakes region. We didnt share a lot of values with the Big XII members.

Everyone hates Scott except the Presidents. He better deliver on the next TV deal.
 
It's partly our fault.
It's partly Larry Scott's fault.
It is not Texas's fault.

That said, **** Texas anyway, lol.
