@tiddyboyhoe @Michael43333781 @LarryMatarasso @Terrapins247 They make more money than other programs. We don’t have pro sports (even though we are bigger than a few pro sport cities) so the corporate dollars go to support UofL. Our bball arena is an NBA quality arena with 22,000 seats and 72 luxury suites

@TaninSmithKK @louis_villecov Louisville only had 6 healthy players in PK’s first year with many of the injured being out either the entire year or the vast majority of the year. They definitely overachieved.

@louis_villecov i’m down for a legit conversation about this stuff but this is just outright false lmfao We lost the only PG on our roster, a projected lottery pick center, and our starting SF this season. Please don’t be delusional. “Not even particularly close” is completely hilarious

Louisville is landing whoever they want in the portal despite Pat Kelsey being a less proven coach than Mark Pope. How/why is this happening? My thoughts:

@IMiss43_41 @TheWildUte @Bomb3r_CFBMafia In 2031 (when almost all other conferences are renegotiating their TV deals) the exit fee to leave the ACC falls to $75M. I could see teams like FSU and Clemson leave but the ACC would just add enough teams to stay above the 15 minimum

@IMiss43_41 @TheWildUte @Bomb3r_CFBMafia ESPN could have gotten out of it last year but exercised the option to continue it through 2036 (since they are paying below market rates for the ACC brands). The only way out now is if the ACC falls below 15 teams. To prevent that, the ACC added SMU, Cal, and Stanford

Notre Dame really said: “Hey ACC — pay us $21M for basketball & Olympic sports…
we’ll keep football independent and make $60M ourselves.” And the ACC said yes. College sports’ greatest heist.

@IMiss43_41 @TheWildUte @Bomb3r_CFBMafia ESPN is locked in for another 10 years. Even if Clemson and FSU pay the buyout and leave in 2031, ESPN still has to pay the contracted amount until 2036 (unless over half the league votes to dissolve). After that the ACC is probably cooked

@IMiss43_41 @TheWildUte @Bomb3r_CFBMafia The only way the ACC would dissolve is if the SEC or B10 took most of the teams. The ACC makes more than the B12 so no team would go to the B12 unless it was a desperate situation (similar to the PAC teams going to the B12)

@TheWildUte @Bomb3r_CFBMafia That said I don’t believe ND will join a conference until the ACC is dissolved. My hope would be that Mia, FSU, Duke & NC all join the Big 12 being the only 4 schools in the ACC that can drive up the earnings in a TV deal. Leaving ND to pick between the B1G & B12.

@Texan4USA Not for basketball or Olympic sports. Usually these get less than $10M. I haven’t seen any evidence there would be any football component to this either.

@detroitotaku @rthiel1096 No, Louisville didn’t play ineligible players and cover it up. Those players weren’t ruled ineligible until years later and it wasn’t because of what they did, it was because they didn’t cooperate with the NCAA after they were in the NBA.

@rthiel1096 How is it far worse? Louisville played numerous ineligible players and covered it up, it made Ed Martin look like a speeding ticket in comparison. Advanced scouting isn’t a magic cheat sheet. It’s a shortcut. It gives you info you would have gotten from other methods anyway.

@TimLanter @SkleeboJ1302 @Barstool_USF Funny how we didn’t get any sympathy last year when we only had 6 players total for the majority of the season. Also let’s not act like Lowe is anything special

I’m so serious I don’t see a scenario where Louisville wins this game without Mikel Brown. Devastating news for them. Like Wes Enis said, we’re the better team. Better on the offensive glass, better defensively, and better shot creators. Mikel Brown was their only chance.

Kentucky finishes 9th in the SEC standings, at 10-8. Their worst conference finish in program history. Since the inception of the SEC in 1932, Kentucky has only finished outside of the top 5 six times. It has happened three times since 2020, including two consecutive seasons.

@raver_lance @PhysicalTherapy It’s a slippery slope and it would be wise for all non blue bloods to fight decentralization. The biggest brands will eventually kick out the smaller brands in those conferences too. One day Ohio State is going to realize that they should be getting paid way more than Rutgers

@karldaddy @UofLCardGame @GiovaBertuccio @PhysicalTherapy They were actually one of the most profitable at Freedom Hall too. Its true that schools will look after themselves. Thats why 100 schools are fighting against 36 schools who are pushing for the status quo (36 until the Bama’s of the world kick out the Vandy’s of the world)

@UofLCardGame @GiovaBertuccio @PhysicalTherapy This is a great point. UL was killing it bc of the YUM Center deal and intertwining the athletic and academic sides, which was costing the city and state money. Conferences, and individual schools, will always look out for themselves first in this day and age

@cfbcampustour They should spread it out different cities. It’s more fun for fans and it grows FCS interest because the host cities will start paying attention more

This is a big time atmosphere with a huge crowd in a 35k seat stadium Even after Toyota Stadium in Frisco, TX completes renovations in 2028, it will seat only 22k fans The FCS has outgrown Frisco & that’s a good thing. Here’s to Nashville as the new home of the #FCSChampionship

@UofLRecruiting1 Just because they enter the portal, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they actually leave. It could be a negotiation tactic
