There’s a paywall.  Basically, 9% juice for online sports gambling.  Hawaii is the top G6, followed by UNLV.  They are mid-P4 level in gambling interest. 
 

More than half of Hawaii’s home games are on PPV and the app.  One can believe that if all Hawaii’s games were on national tv, esp the home games, that gambling interest would double (maybe triple over time). 
 

I’m out of free views, but maybe you can see:

Is 9% the Gross juice FD charges the gambler 

Does the school get a cut off the juice from FD?

Wait.  Gloria went to the media partners right after losing membership?  The folks who put the MWC on TV and pay money for that?  I mean, wow!!!

That might have been the dumbest video I've ever seen.  Honestly, I couldn't finish it.  For fuck's sake, of course she went to the sugar daddy and asked what to do next.  There is stupid, and then there is the Monty Show.  I'm not even sure where to begin in describing the level of halfwittednes (not sure that's a word) that show presents.  Gloria consulted with the media partners regarding who to backfill with, and assumably the Pac has been stumbling around only talking to random schools without any consultation with prospective media partners.  Dang, that's likely.

That podcast gives really stupid podcasts a good name.


they’re nails on a chalkboard.

how do they think a merger is still a good idea?

I don’t gamble but I think so, when the person wins.  If the person loses, all their money is taken.  And if it’s a push, they get their money back. 
 

No. Currently the school doesn’t get a cut.

 

Gambling has existed forever.  But since 2018, after a Supreme Court ruling, online sports gambling has grown to about 38 states.

And now we are seeing the rise of Casino with their own streaming or TV channels.  The thought process is they can make money an additional way such as gaining market share as the casino by also showing the game.  The direct compensation of 9% juice just adds a direct way to monetize. 
 

In a world where cable revenue is down and trending down.  Commercial ads are likely down except for the biggest events (Super Bowl $8MM for 30 secs). 
 

This can be game changing for a G6 program or conference, if they add a special wrinkle.  
 

In the case for Hawaii, being the last game of the day.  And UNLV, a team you might bet on while visiting Vegas.  Using Hawaii and UNLV to lure the best up and coming Casino + Media company is the best thing to do now since between now and 2031, the media rights of the other conferences are locked in.  6-7 years is a long time from now.

Fresno has had more FB Titles  than the rest of the leftovers. They also have more CCG appearances than the rest do, combined. They have as many basketball Titles as UNLV.

Utard State has brought more post season revenue to the MW than any of the left behind Schools. They have more FB Titles than everyone but Sparty.

CSewe got invited. The rest didn't.

 

But keep telling us how the Pac sucks.

🤣

Your reading level must be that of a 2nd grader.  Where did I say the Pac sucks?  Hint:  I didn't.  But what I did say is that it isn't the second coming of conferences, it is just another G5 something with their share of dead weight.  Poser.

LOL - spin away.  We aren't talking about WYO here...we are talking about CSewe and that your athletics are nothing special, no matter what you and your doped up fanbase believe.  CSewe athletics suck, but hey, congrats on that 2nd place finish in football (first time in 11 years - you are fucking juggernauts)!  LMAO.  I also like those TV ratings, well done!  Hahahaha.

How are bullet pts of empirical evidence “spin?”

How do you prove if something is, or is not “special” w/out comparing it to something else?  I chose wy-hole for that comparison.

What does it matter if CSU is “special” or not?  The bottom line is, CSU is moving on, while wyo is left behind.  What else is material in this discussion?
