Big Ten, SEC form advisory group as conferences' bond tightens

The move is significant because it reflects a growing relationship between the two largest and wealthiest conferences and their respective commissioners as the balance of power continues to tilt in their favor in the evolving collegiate landscape.

Sources have told ESPN that Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti and SEC commissioner Greg Sankey have been working closely together -- more than their predecessors had -- at a time when conference expansion has further separated their leagues from the other FBS conferences.

College football keeps changing and changing. Not sure if it is for the best. Conference realignment, NIL, transfer portal going to make things tougher for college coaches. When a HC from a power five conference takes a DC position in the NFL that tells you a lot.

I'm curious how this affects to ACC and the Big 12. Are they on the outside looking in as well?

Maybe these two should form an advisory council for Basketball

Half of the ACC wants out of that conference to try and join the Big10 or SEC.  If Florida State ever finds the key to escape then the ACC won't be what they are today.

Geez, imagine if you did something crazy, like forego revenue for almost a decade, just to get into one of those leagues. 
 

Man, you’d feel pretty stupid and look pretty desperate.   But who would do something that crazy?

Stanford and Cal are getting revenue.

30%, forgoing 70%. Quite a lot for schools who were already at the table. Per the ACC release Stanford, Cal AND SMU will still receive revenue from the College Football Playoff, bowl games and NCAA Basketball Tournament. Also, I believe all three, SMU included, will get their full share of the ACC Network money.

LOL.  SMU becomes a full revenue share member if any legacy ACC school leaves the league (including the close to $1b it will cost a school to leave the conference as well as the rights to their home games through 2036).

This is correct.  SMU will receive around $12m in total revenue (roughly).  Obviously could change depending on number of NCAA basketball credits.

First up the union is going to happen. College will establish a collective labor agreement like the pros. The next step is private corporations or individuals are going to buy the teams with the schools getting a %. The college football revenue agreements are going to explode! The future!

We're making more as ACC members while foregoing that revenue than we were making in the AAC.  

Anyone in the AAC SHOULD be desperate enough to take that deal, so yes, we were desperate.  But it's not a financially bad move.

Sending Volleyball, etc to California and up and down the East coast won't be easy on students or fans.  Oh wait, no fans....just hard on the students.

Hey Stank, explain how you are making more, foregoing revenue in the ACC, than you are in the AAC?

On second thought, I don't care.

There are multiple income streams.  Media contract is one (the biggest) but there is also bowl revenue, playoff, NCAA tournament, and others that flow through conferences.

Don’t all those streams run through the ACC office?

Yes (for the most part).  Regardless the revenue will be greater despite getting nothing from the media deal than what SMU was slated to receive in the American.

The logical answer is eventually, yes. The delusional answer is no....a.....West Virginia or Boston College or..........wait for it......SMU 😂 will be on the same level as Ohio State and Texas. Not gonna happen.

Just split up already. I'm going to say that the SMUs and North Texas's of the world will be right back in the same level of college football in less than five years. The question will be what will happen to Texas Tech, TCU, etc.....

They will not be in the group with Alabama, Michigan, OU, USC, etc.

Big time college football is about to be 40 teams

It isn't about being on the same level as Ohio State and Texas.  For programs like WVU, SMU, and BC its about making the cut.  The next step is a break away from the G5.  The expanded playoff will likely be 8 teams from Big 10/SEC and four from the Big 12/ACC.

The Big 12 and ACC will be a step below the Big 10/SEC but won't be left for dead like the G5 will inevitably be here in the next decade.

      Cotton, Vice And Mason

      Not being capable and not being given a legitimate opportunity are two different things. Moore never got a legitimate chance in my opinion. I don't think Taylor would have been given a legitimate chance either just like I don't believe Vice, Cotton, and Mason are being given legitimate opportunities to showcase themselves. We had a 20 point lead the entire second have against Evansville. They couldn't get in for 5-10 minutes with the members of the main rotation to see how they perform? Would be nice to know what we have if a main player goes down...

      The Band

      Before adding my thoughts, I have some questions about the band that maybe current or former band members or someone in the know can answer. 1. Who gets to be in the band? Is it an open try out or only available to students in the school of music? Is there a try out at all? 2. Do band members have to pay for (or rent) their uniforms or are they provided by the school? 3. Do they play their own personal instruments or are these provided by the school? 4. Where does any funding required for the band come from (Athletic Department, School of Music, somewhere else)? 5. Do band members receive any credits (elective or otherwise) for being in the band of it is purely voluntary? 6. What (if any) is the relationship between the Green Brigade and the pep band that plays at basketball games?

      UNT Basketball Beats Oregon State, 58-55

      DENTON – Atin Wright hit a game-winning 3-pointer with seven seconds remaining as the UNT men’s basketball team defeated Oregon State 58-55 at the Super Pit on Monday night. Three North Texas (5-1) players finished with double-digit point totals as the Mean Green remained undefeated at home this season. Latrell Jossell finished with a season and game-high 15 points. Brenen Lorient scored a career-high 14 points, extending his streak of double-digit point games to three. UNT has now beaten two high-major teams this regular season — they defeated Minnesota 54-51 on Nov. 13. It’s the first time they’ve accomplished that since the 2010-11 season when they beat Texas Tech and LSU in the same year during the regular season. The Mean Green continued to be one of the most efficient defensive teams in the country, forcing 22 Beavers turnovers, UNT’s highest total since Nov. 26, 2020 when the Mean Green defeated Mississippi Valley State 116-62 at home. "Our ability to turn them over 22 times in a one-possession game was the separator," head coach Ross Hodge said. " That's a really good team that can really shoot. We talked about it in one of the [media timeouts] that we were going to really have to string together some of our best defensive possessions and I thought that group in the second half was really good." North Texas took a close 26-25 lead into the locker room at halftime. Oregon State (4-2) came out hot to begin the second half and held the lead until the 5:38 mark. 13 of the Beavers’ 22 turnovers came in the second half, ultimately leading to the Mean Green’s close victory. North Texas travels to Kissimmee, Fla. to take on Northern Iowa on Thursday at 7 p.m. CT for their first game of the NIT Season Tip-Off. For more information on UNT Basketball tickets, contact the Mean Green Ticket Office at 940-565-2527 or at ticketoffice@unt.edu. Fans can purchase tickets at www.meangreentickets.com or visit the UNT Athletics Ticket Office located at Gate 2 of DATCU Stadium between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

      The Band

      high school band director was a mistake. band has regressed. drumline is abysmal, no confidence, no arrogance, no true talent. last 2 years the drumline has been the worst since the 80s. need to drop that best damn band in the land and best drumline in college football....not even close to being true.

      24/25 MBB Attendance Tracker

      We are starting to cut into the deficit created by the first game compared to last year. Now only down 8.72% in terms of average attendance. Last night was the highest game 4 attendance of the last four years, but to be honest, I was a little disappointed it was only 3,292 for a "name" opponent (yes, even during Thanksgiving week). November 25 was our earliest game 4, but a much stronger opponent. The previous 3 years it was 12/4 (LSU Shreveport), 12/3 (Omaha) and 12/2 (Miss Valley State) respectively. I mentioned this during the in-game thread, but the ESPN+ broadcast sounds like the commentators are off site in a soundproof room or something. Not hearing the crowd noise and the excitement in the arena really detracts from the game experience. Need a better audio production. I switched to the radio stream and it was much better from that perspective.
