FSU to the B1G

[fsu1jreed]

I'm sure that the B1G, CBS, NBC, and FOX can do the math on this to see if that's true.....since this is all about tv dollars anyways

The maths already been done...this doesn't even include the last two years

FSU football: TV viewership still top 15 nationally depsite last five years

FSU football remains of the top programs despite the last five years when it comes to TV Ratings. It's why FSU won't be left in the dust with realignment.

If the money matched or surpassed that of the $EC and/or the B1G, I could tolerate a BIG XII that looked like this:

Division A:​

1. Florida State (FSU)
2. Clemson
3. Miami
4. Georgia Tech
5. North Carolina
6. NC State
7. Duke
8. Virginia (UVA)
9. Virginia Tech
10. Louisville
11. Pitt

Division B:​

1. Notre Dame
2. Memphis
3. Oklahoma State
4. Utah
5. Colorado
6. Texas Tech
7. BYU
8. Texas Christian (TCU)
9. Arizona
10. West Virginia
11. Kansas

Problem is there aren't many Blue Bloods, so the perception would still be that it's weaker.

I can't believe that you'd leave Baylor out despite their success in football (recent conference champ and Sugar Bowl win) and both M and W basketball.

Typo. Meant to stick in Baylor, not BYU (sorry, Steve Young).

The only people I trust are three people I know personally connected to FSU’s inner workings and not some talking heads and they’ve said independent of each other that it was FSU to the BIG long before any lawsuit actually happened. And they continue to reassure me any time I ask that it’s still true. There have been talks with the SEC and Big 12 as well as private equity as an independent as well but that’s just due diligence in case something happens with the real option.

So KSU, BYU, Houston, and ISU would vote for a merger which eliminates themselves from the conference?

No clue. Just throwing crap on a wall to see if it sticks.

Got it, it is just that scenario - especially including ND - is implausible unless the conferences all were dissolved and were created anew. At this point for the Big 10 with it adding the 4 PAC teams, it is so far gone from what I know I would take the addition of ND and FSU and call it good at 20, unless somehow we can get a toehold in Texas with TA$MU.

I certainly hope Norvell doesn’t (re)develop a substance abuse issue.

That's not the math though, the question is whether FSU's addition adds enough new eyeballs/tv subscriptions/advertising dollars to the conference to increase the contract share per member. Maybe it does, maybe it doesn't - I don't know, but I can infer that the B1G/FOX/CBS/NBC have done the math on it.

I take all these articles with a huge grain of salt but this makes a lot more sense to me than FSU and Clemson. AAU membership is a real factor

FSU fans might want to start thinking about tailgates in Ames instead of Iowa City. Never thought the b10 presidents would approve a school that still does that god awful tomahawk chop anyway

Big Ten and Notre Dame want to get into state of Texas in realignment, covet Texas A&M

Never mind that BC v FSU was blacked out from 11 million TV sets due to the ESPN/ABC - DirectTV dispute. Those Nole numbers are skewed due to that.

Suggested settlement would keep FSU in the ACC through 2030. FSU would be paid much more, on ratings, and could exit 6 years early. Also no massive exit fee. This would be approximately 3 years longer than if FSU prevails in court.

Interesting. Might allow for a more soft landing OUT of the ACC to delay, meets the "we need more $ in general now", we don't get a huge penalty and drags feet to see what changes are in play 2030. I think college ball needs a 3rd strong conference for more balance, but the ACC has waited too long to find the right schools. Imagine if 18 months ago the ACC had been able to grab Oregon, Washington, Stanford, USC.

I don’t know if Bud mentioned this, but the next Big 10 media deal will begin after the 2029-30 season. Oregon and Washington will not receive full shares until then. If FSU wants into the Big 10, this deal with the ACC is the best option for maximizing income.

Towards the end, he mentioned that another round of re-alingment would be taking place in 2030 so this could work out well for FSU

Guess we'd have to take what we can get. Soon to be 1-9 doesn't allow much leverage....
