Agree, but we can definitely upgrade some schools, starting with Baylor.

I am all for kicking Baylor to the curb and bringing in just about anyone else. Houston would be my first thought.

That's like trading chlamydia for herpes, I'll pass.

The hell it is! Now I realize that Houston is like the WVU of city schools, but the enrollment is large, they're in one of the largest TV markets in the US, and Houston is a much more fun place than Waco. Also, I'm unaware of any murders and rapes being condoned and subsequently covered up by the U of H athletic department. So it's like trading herpes, a lifelong painful virus that no one wants to be associated with, for a small case of chlamydia, which is just a little infection that can be cleaned up in less time than it takes to prepare for next weeks football game.

People in Houston give exactly 0 effs about U of H. They host game day and nobody bothers to show up. The college sports fan demographic in Houston is like a tie between UT and aTm, followed in close third by LSU and then in a way distant 4th is UofH. I don't think them being in the big 12 would make a huge impact on their viewership aside from maybe a few more visiting team butts in seats.

I'd be curious to know how things changed when they left cusa for aac. My guess is marginal difference but idk

Would you eat a piece of human poop to have UCF over Baylor?

I think it’s the one game a year that would have been kstate.hdtv for football and the non con games in basketball that normally were fox sports kc in b-ball

Well they totally crapped the bed the last time ESPN tried to stream our opener so I’m not super optimistic.

It’s fine imo. My cox contour box automatically pulls up games on it. I can’t tell a difference between real tv and it when using that.

Is this good or lame?:
https://www.kstatesports.com/news/2019/4/10/athletics-big-12-espn-enhance-comprehensive-rights-agreement.aspx

Lots of branding speak in that article from administrators, always makes me nauseous....on the financials side of this, it has to be good for the KSU Cats right? Or is the craptastic KSUHD actually a cash cow? I think the PAC 12 may have passed on a similar deal with ESPN. This makes Larry Scott a confirmed idiot.

Mean Gene Taylor had this to say, so maybe we'll get about the same as we got from owning our own 3rd tier rights?

“That is still being worked through,” Taylor said. “How that all trickles down to each individual institution is to be determined. It may not be a ton more money right now per institution.”

Also...please send any stories of local hayseeds complaining about the death of the Jayhawk Television Network.

Might have to pay for noncon games. Not sure if its like usual ESPN3 or if it has a real paywall (not including service provider login).

OU is getting another new UP.  Also, Fox announced their marquee game time will be an 11:00am kickoff, which will just piss off OU fans.  I don't think anything changes, but this is another opportunity for a vocal faction of OU fan to try and flame crap.

It's the perfect kickoff time for when you're watching at home.

Speaking of the Pac-12, I get a whole bunch of different Pac-12 channels on my TV. I've been watching the Pac-12 track and field championships on them and I quite like it. When pole vault ends on one channel, I'll switch to another channel and watch steeple chase. Like the Olympics!
