Everyone is ignoring a key detail about the PAC: it's looking like the TV money is drying up or the majors have all the content they need.

Even if the MWC is able to survive this in some fashion, is the pac a warning sign for our next round of TV negotiations? Yes we are far less than they were asking BUT do we have any value in the next round? Do we regress more to fcs-level TV values?

IMO the sooner the TV money collapses the better. Maybe everyone can go back to nice, smaller regional conferences

Agree. Realistically it's not drying up; it's increasing but consolidating.

I think it will dry up. Young people don't like sports nearly as much as older generations, at least in my experience. At least I should say young people don't like viewing and consuming sports as much

You are correct, younger generations do not care as much about "traditional" sports. CFB has become a monster and it's depressing the direction it has gone. Unfortunately we probably won't see those changes in our lifteime.

The pie stays the same and the SEC and Big 10 keep getting bigger slices. I still think there’s enough need to fill time slots that we can stay with the same pay. We’re poverty conference already.
