That statement is in reference to the P12 going all in with Apple but the report

Any facts about the comparable B12 offer? Or is this from so long ago that

“A deal with ESPN is not close”

"At this point, a deal with ESPN is not close."

So much for George K presenting a deal to PAC presidents this week...

That was my thought. No way can anything get done in the self imposed 2 week

Literally none of that is new info.

Just confirming that nothing has changed other than Utah AD and ASU/UofA pres

They made statements based on the information that they had,

Depends — I would argue it is new because

It does not directly contradict that, unless you start filling in info that is not there.

TCuz

3/20/23 8:03am

Yes it does. The only one that can get to the Big12 number is Apple and that is

RGGeemer

I disagree

$300M still does not equal B12

Don't forget about the production costs that the PAC would have to provide.

Not sure we’re looking for “new info” At this stage

3/20/23 8:07am

Bingo

Literally none of your response is helpful.

It’s all just regurgitated info. I’ve listened to their podcasts and read Andrew’s updates

TCuz

That's just it. No news is pretty big news in light of the AZ pres saying 'We

Like I said, if you want to fill in a bunch of extra stuff that’s not in the linked article, knock yourself out.

There are two specific contradictions

Didn't we think the Apple deal was dead?

It’s a good analysis but even SBJ is careful to add the disclaimer

True, but it's an intriguing counterbalance to the recent slew

The report is from the NYPost. That writer shares a podcast with a SBJ reporter.

Correct — changed

Having worked for a supplier to Apple in the past, this is very true: "It is

Sounds like owning one of their products. 😉

3/20/23 9:03am

And again, Apple has no production capacity, therefore, all games would need to

Sounds like Apple is the only bona fide bidder. Recipe for a low offer?

Brandoblueblood

3/20/23 12:18pm

30 million is a super lowball offer when you consider the production costs

travelcoug

3/20/23 12:42pm

That means 18 to 20,000,000 per year per school

Good point - Will PAC try to compare PAC top line to Big12 bottom line?
