Syracuse ticket sales

I had a suite at Tim's Toyota Center (Now Findlay Toyota Center) in Prescott, AZ for 7 years. Only time I lost ownership was during special events. Like a Presidential rally or a graduation. And even then, I had first dibs. I believe that's pretty universal. If Jefferson's On Ice came to town, my suite went dark.
Did you also have video games in your room, a train that drove through your living room, and a black friend who danced with Michael Jackson in a Pepsi commercial?

Good to know. I know that’s how the TMobile was set up, but not Allegiant

PAC 2 pausing expansion …. CBS Sports….

I think OSU/WAZZU is about 18-20
Boise 13-15
SDSU 12-14
CSU 9-10
Fresno 9-10
USU 5

SAC states < 1
UNLV is probably 8-9

Memphis 16
Tulane 10
USF 9
UTSA 8

Take the original 10 ( with the AAC) and you will get around 12 mil per team per year as reported
If you use those numbers for the current Mountain West teams though, that would be much higher than our current contract.

According to the current deal, we get around $4 million annually, per team. It's 270 million for 6 years by 12 teams.

So if we took Boise at 14, SDSU 13, CSU 9.5, Fresno 9.5, USU 5, and UNLV 8.5, that adds up to 59.5 million. It's been said that Hawaii may be in the 6 range, so we'll add that in, and it's up to 65.5 million for 7 teams.

So even if we put the following teams in:
SJSU 5, Wyoming 2, UNR 3, UNM 3, Air Force 5.5, that would bring the MWC up to $84 million which would be 7 million per year, which is almost double what our current media deal is.

It’s still going to be delicious if they end up at $10m or less, the MW gets $6m, and UNLV is getting $7.5m with an extra $15m-$20m in the bank.
That would be pretty cool. I don't see the MW getting a baseline 6. I see the 4 that was reported when UTEP joined. And it is only up that due to inflation from out last contract.
I think we get 6.5 next year. Then 5.5 for the next 5 years.

If we do get a baseline 6, the Pac is getting 10-11 easy. And we won't have an extra 20 mil in the bank. We will have an extra 10-14. The rest is built into the payouts laid out above

I think the UNLV numbers were prior to this season. Every game UNLV wins will add to that number. Beat BSU and their number will drop, and if UNLV hasn't lost yet, then I could see their number jumping above any Monkey Pax2 team!

I think even with this configuration, $12m is too high. Osu/wsu and Boise are a little over valued in this. $10m might be a little bit more tolerable in today’s market. I couldn’t imagine CBS stomaching $12m a year per school. They’re hemorrhaging money. Espn too.
With taking the middle of each range I got 12.3 million.

Ita sems like thr PAC's media partners are going from historical data. Osu and wazzu have great historical data. Plus the CW loves them and they do have infrastructure from the PaC 12 network that reduces costs.

Also again the PAC was offered 30 mil per year without LA. The gap between the schools was not that big.

12 million was mentioned a lot. I'm going to think that is what the original number for their first choice at 10.

There is a big reason the PAC are rebuilding. They don't want to share their worth with teams that bring nothing to the table. They have worth, at least they do right now. It doesn't matter to them if they are actually worth that. They just need that contract, then it is up to the networks to sell it.

I was feeling great til I saw the line move on ESPN to -5.5.
Someone found out that Marsel McDuffie is not playing tonight?

Edit: SU is getting their starting DB Marcellus Barnes back tonight.

4 teams cannot sway the value that much. I do believe that is was 12 as reported by multiple sources with the 4 AAC schools. Only Memphis might have the argument of being better than all or most of the PAC as it is.

Remember the PAC had a 30 mil contact without the LA schools.

The big 10 PAC teams are perhaps worth the 50 they are getting now. Or close to it

The big 12 PAC teams are worth 30 in a similar fashion .

I don't think the drop off for the PAC 2 is that extreme. I think they may be worth 18 or even 20.

2 45-50mill teams 4 25-35 mil team and 2 20 mil teams will get you to 30 per team.

So replacing the AAC 4 with ony Memphis this being that much higher than the mean will not drop the payouts to half, especially you are considering you are replacing 4 with 2.

I think USU is worth about 5. They are average in the MW.

But I think the value is easily 8, probably closer to 10 right now. It will likely drop with their next add, unless they can still get some AAC schools of course.

So if the contact is worth 70 now in total even adding a team that is worth 0 it is till an 8.75 mil payout

Not sure about the guy that posted this but it was re-tweeted by Geoff Grammer who typically solid 9n his info.

If MWC is still worth 6 million per school I'd venture PAC as it sits is possibly 8?

Definitely not the 12-15 they were originally throwing around.
No ****ing way should UTEP get $6 million.

Hawaii

Not a big fan of the travel subs. I think it’s kind of bush league and we should drop them.

Especially if we’re screwing Hawaii out of millions and only giving them 5% of the exit fee money. They're at least as valuable as UNR and SJSU who are getting 11.5%.
If we give them extra exit money that is still just a short term solution for Hawaii. Their travel expenses to the mainland is about $1.5 million per the article. Now what we need to do is take the average of the 7 other MWC schools travel cost which I'm guessing is less. Then subtract the average travel costs from the $1.5 million. Let's say for example that it shows Hawaii with travel costs $500,000 more than what the average 7 pay annually then that could be the amount we give Hawaii extra on their annual media revenue payout. That way everyone is pretty much on a level playing field.

But, I think the holdup on them accepting is that media contract they have with Spectrum. They may be making more money than what we are getting on our media contract. That and we don't sponsor all the sports they participate with in the Big West.
