remember the arrogant ACC attitude when UMD defected. Some people even said that Louisville was a more valuable member. Then Duke said they would never play UMD again. They all got together in a huge meeting and developed / signed the ironclad GOR and smugly waxed secure and superior.

I remember thinking “ What’s FSU doing signing that thing? Are they stupid or do they know something that is secret and not totally obvious?”

Well it turns out that FSU must be run by stupid administrators and that doesn’t say much for the education quality. Everybody else wouldn’t definitely have a landing spot due to a number of factors so they have some excuses.

At any rate the loss of its most valuable member really did a number on the ACC. I feel bad for those schools.[/quote]

What was UMD's main reason for defecting? [/quote]

They got an invitation and the numbers were mind blowing .[/quote]

Yes after adding UMD and Rutgers the media contract for the B1G doubled.[/quote]

Rutgers and USC doubled the value now  UCLA / USC (LA market) increases it 65 percent to 100 million per school when they join. Washington and Oregon only get 30 million because they actually lower the payment per school. The big money schools are UMD, Rutgers, Ohio State, Penn State, Michigan, Northwestern, UCLA, USC.
