AI picked it out by proximity.

Just a note for those doing math at home, keep in mind that Apple likely uses a form of mark to market management accounting/reporting for subscriber revenue. For example, if a new subscriber signs up for $5 a month, the book value can be placed at the “fair market value of that subscriber” which makes some assumptions about their lifetime value and churn rate.
Thus, the number of subs needed can be lower given the theoretical LTV attached.

Does Apple really have a dependable method that enables them to account for new sub adds that would be directly attributable to the Pac9?

$30 million per team X 9 teams = $270 million / $20 per month for 3 months = 4.5 million subscribers just to break even

At least with streaming, I don't think there will be commercial breaks dragging the game time out. But maybe they add commercial breaks or scrolling commercials. Only way to pay for it.

90% streaming at ~$10M less than the Big 12 has to be bad enough for Oregons and Washington to start considering options assuming the B1G isn’t casting a lifeline.

I have been wondering what has happened to O & W.
They have been following the FSU/ACC GOR odeal very closely.
FSU believes they have found a way to navigate the GOR issue at a pretty big reduction in cost. It is legally risky, but it appears they might be ready to risk it.
O & W believes this could somehow open up B10 expansion again, so they are at least temporarily off line with the B12.
idk that much about this, as I haven’t been following it.
I would have thought FSU would be an SEC add?
I also thought the B1G was primarily after ND, so Idk how much sense it makes.

Hahaha. That they were defrauded out of their rights ? Gmab. This is the dumbest strategy ever. And not to mention that with Duke, UVA , Wake, UNC , etc they will have adequate representation to fend this off. This will not work.

Nope, definitely commercials. Paramount already does this with their soccer specific sportscenter-like shows.

Right now we don't need Oregon and Washington to do anything other than refuse to sign a TV deal with the Pac.

I mean, you can't legally sign contacts with minors or the mentally incompetent. FSU can make a good case here.

To my knowledge the Az BoR Exec session is still meeting in private session. It must be a lively discussion.

I mean this is literally one of the dumbest ideas…. They will have to fight the ACC in Guilford County (Greensboro, NC).

Yeah people are bidding for live sports bc people are forced to watch commercials & the ad space is valuable as hell.

Jason Scheer was just on 365 Sports.
His view of the deal is $22m base & $1 per sub with -0- linear (except some tier3 that Apple might sublease) He said the Az. BoR is still in session, but he believes UA will be a B12 member by weeks end.
He also said it might not get announced right away. (that sounded strange)
Robbins is already on record saying he wouldn’t be able to sign with more than 50% streaming. He is out on the PAC, but doesn’t want to be viewed as the PAC killer.
