Virginia Coach Tony Bennett retires

Why, now?
He, should of retired in May.
Exactly. He just signed an extension in June through the 2030 season.

WE HAVE A CONFERENCE NOW...

I am curious to see how the CW numbers are for the UNLV v Oregon State game in order to compare those numbers to viewership of other games involving Washington State and Oregon State on the CW.

From what I can see, it doesn't look like there is a large difference from top to bottom with teams that play on the CW, which tells me there are a lot of casual fans that are not specific to any team.

The lowest number was Washington State v Portland 223K
The highest number was CSU v Oregon State 568K
The average number for all games with or without Washington State and Oregon State was 430K
The average for Oregon State was 467K
The average for Washington State was 382K

A good comparison will be how does the viewership number for the UNLV v Oregon State game on the CW look compared to the 568K that watch CSU v Oregon State.
Hopefully we'll get a bunch of Boise fans tuning in to that game since they play UNLV next week and Oregon State at the end of the season.

I wouldn't say 10x OSU/WSU worth, but it could easily be 3-5x. What's crazy is that in terms of TV viewership, Colorado consistently gets the highest numbers, which is surprising to me. I know they have the Denver market, but I think they get quite a boost just with Deion being there. I'd be curious to see their viewership for the years before he arrived.

Top 100 Basketball

We can't even make the top 101 LOL. When you are listed behind Yale, Vermont and High Point you're in bad shape.

Press conference

Absolutely. The big question is, does he want to be here for that. He can definitely make more money elsewhere, but you do get to an age or a point in life when it's not just about the money. If this year ends the way most of us hope, he'll likely have to make the choice as to where he stands. Yes, the school/boosters can bump him up, but if a P4 school offers him $6+ million per year, UNLV can't compete with those types of offers monetarily.
UNLV boosters may or may not be able to stretch out to $6 million a year, which would be a huge and expensive coach, but if one of the top 30 schools wanted him, I am sure they could even push up closer to $10 million which is way beyond what the boosters could find for UNLV. Most likely we are looking at a boost that puts coach Odom near the $3 million range per year based on the season finishing the way we all hope, and then hope he wants to stay for reasons other than cash.
