The AAC is a new conference, so the bolded is a given.

Point: The contract is not likely to be a long-term revenue stream. Coattails are a great ride. But don't convince us.

Then again, you all were stating each team was to earn how many millions per year/per team?

I'm glad you now see that everything I said was accurate...

.....and short-sighted. Then again, everything about the AAC has turned out to be that way. So, no surprise.

So 4 games a year on cbssports, fs1, and ASN> Every conference game on ESPN network.

Friday night games are not ideal.

ESPN is not the only tv network. But go nuts. Again, we don't want to hear it here. Tell your board how great AAC football is.... I certainly don't buy it is much different from CUSA. Esp when CUSA dominated the AAC this year.

And what happened?...None of it came to fruition. Terry Holland begged CUSA for more regional schools...CUSA added them only to see ECU bolt for false promises. Today reality sets in as they play in front of 10k fans. They now play in a conference that is more wide spread than ever before with hardly any additional TV revenue to make up the difference.

If I were an ECU fan would I be angry?...You bet I would. Sucks for ECU and I think they should have stayed in CUSA. It is what it is.

10k fans? There aren't 2,000 fans there.

There were at least twice that many (2,000) ECU fans there. I was one of them...

Except that's what this thread was made about?? Besides I certainly didn't say anything about Football, I was referring to Basketball which is what the posts I replied to were about.

If you don't want to hear about the American don't start threads about it.

Or we can help the common denominator in these threads leave, when they constantly engage is pee-pee contests. Suit yourself
