Klatt used to joke about how he would see a non revenue sport athlete around Dal Ward and when they would say “hi”, he would just say, “you’re welcome”.

I actually find that incredibly douchey. Doesn’t make him wrong, but...
It’s actually a really funny joke. I wasn’t there to witness whether it ever actually happened
Goes right along and hand in hand with how he acted during the Embry debacle. He was a complete condescending ahole. I have little respect for how he approaches much.
You guys need to lighten up, my goodness
But what? Some things are better left unsaid?
You are right, it is and douchey.
$31.7m/school and doesn’t include tier 3 rights

That seems doable for the remaining pac 12 schools. I think the media partners just want a guarantee the schools will stay in the conference though
Is this good ? How much more $ would be tier 3 rights?
Tier 3 not included. I'm thinking Tier probably gets them there.
No way some of those schools sniff $8 mil /year for tier 3. KU might with Bball, but tier 3 is entirely driven by local market and viewership and none of the schools outside Texas are large market.
Big 12 appear to be paying more than the PAC will get.
PAC has no stability considering UW UO are constantly flight risks.
Given the above, CU should go to the Big 12. I’d be colluding with the other four corner schools right now.
This is more than previously speculated/reported/leaked p12 numbers.

Good enough for me, I’m taking that deal if I’m CU and get invited.

Not really, all of these media numbers escalate from now until the end. Pretty standard. Tier 3 rights are **** for 80% of programs.
IIRC, the new B12 deal looks to be nearly identical to the predicted deal by the sports media analytics company posted earlier ITT.
Klatt admitted as much on his radio show with CJ back in the day, he made it quite clear it wasn't a joke. He was also super pissed about the new hoops practice facility being built and mocked it live on air. So no, we don't need to lighen up.

Yes, live rights keep going up. I’m confused at to what you’re trying to say. Pac 12 could easily get that but tv partners want the league to stay intact. No schools want to put that in writing
Marchand reported P12 is 100s of millions apart with ESPN. The first number floated was 22. Then 25. I think the p12 number remains less than a comparable b12 number at the moment. GK needs a solid streaming deal. All JMO.
I look forward to USC and or UCLA having the same rival-less meh experience we did in a conference that they have no rivalries in. I take some enjoyment in the fact that ‘****s given’ will slowly dimish in a bland malaise as they cant compete and realize they were brought along mostly for their already indifferent TV market.
USC will challenge tOSU for the cream of the conference most years, and they will be excited to play big programs like tOSU, UM, MSU, PSU, Wis, Iowa and yes, even Nebraska. However, those games might be 3/9 conference games, while the other 6 will be highly unattractive matchups against Minn, IL, Indiana, Purdue, Maryland, or Rutgers.
UCLA is the program that is likely to regret the move outside of no longer being cash strapped

UCLA will be very upset
