SDSU's idiotic Presidents opinion on MWC expansion

SDSU's president Steven Weber,
The really interesting questions are going to be what we start thinking about in January, Weber said. The first question would be: would we like to add more programs? If so, the question is whether it’s one or two (programs in addition to Hawaii). Beyond that, a question is where those programs would be. Do we want to stay in Texas, or do we want to look elsewhere?

If not Texas... Then where else would add more television sets? :skeptic:


In effect, the MWC has traded its top three football programs for the top four football programs of the WAC. A big question is how that trade-off changes the value of the MWC’s TV rights contracts, which affect each school’s revenue share.



Weber said he didn’t anticipate revenue shares would decrease.

:skeptic: :gross: :skeptic: :gross: :skeptic: :bug: :gross: :skeptic: :gross: :skeptic: :gross:

Well... He's in for a surprise WHEN THEY DO DECREASE!



SDSU isn't bothered at all that the MWC lost the Utah market. Or the Dallas/Fort Worth market too.
Let’s be clear: the market in Utah is pretty small; that’s not a big marketplace, he said. While there would have been a market in Dallas-Fort Worth (with TCU), it wasn’t being accessed (because the league’s TV network, The Mtn., lacks cable distribution there).

Obviously he forgot about BYU's fanbase that expands nation wide. Oh well... I can forget that considering it's coming from a school who complains too much.



I love how stubborn and idiotic guys like Hair and Weber are being! I can't wait to see other schools begin their complaints when they're losing money and can't afford their sports program -- even though these presidents are agreeing to these expansions.

So Weber the sdsu weiner has become the Rat ringleader of the mwc/mtn BS

Here's little asstec quote today:
“Let’s be clear: the market in Utah is pretty small; that’s not a big marketplace,” he said. “While there would have been a market in Dallas-Fort Worth (with TCU), it wasn’t being accessed (because the league’s TV network, The Mtn., lacks cable distribution there).”


Just 65% of the marketing value was in the state of Utah alone, but hey it's a tiny little nothing. Weber and Hair will probably announce their love during a Rainbow-Cowboy matchup.





Clearly this guy lives indoors who doesn't know what a mormon is which expands BYU all over the country FYI. Like a jewish tradition it is, BYU cut off the mwc/mtn, Hair, Weber the Wiener.



Thank goodness





GO BYU enjoy being seen on a WEEKLY BASIS by Hundreds of Millions!!!

Ignorance refutes itself!



Good luck to SDSU. They are going to need it.



When was the last time they sold out a stadium? In fact, am I correct in recalling that TCU (a top 5 team with a small stadium) didn't even sell out all of their games? I've watched more MTN broadcasting than I'd care to admitt this year, and I don't recall a lot of advertising directed at the San Diego market.



I can't wait to see them all dress up like missionaries again, and then call us racist when they loose. :P

MWC = delusional and run by men who refused to recognize what BYU meant to their athletic programs both athletically and financially. The Mountain will fold in a few years and many of them will head to obscurity. Or they will continue to see conference upheaval and change as they search for the stability BYU brought.



Thank you Utah for going to the PAC-12. Without that move we would have stayed where we were.

Actually, I see the MWC moving toward where the WAC is this season. They'll survive, just like the WAC did, with an ESPN contract that has teams playing on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays on ESPN for a pittance. The WAC, however, is in serious trouble.



The new MWC is nothing more than the old WAC with Air Force as a general upgrade. SDSU will improve against more even competition since the only programs keeping them in the second tier in the conference are now gone.



I think in the new year the MWC expands to 12 teams and eventually negotiates an ESPN contract.



They won't be making AQ status any time soon though.

I'd rather play to a small market that pulls 40 to 50 % of that market for viewers than a really large market that pulls .1% for viewers.



Fans of BYU & :utard: don't have to compete with NFL teams.

All these idiots from the MWC are trying to make lemonade out of lemons, but they don't have any sugar, so it just comes out as sour lemon juice.

And when the lemon juice being passed off as lemonade doesn't sell--the lemonade stand goes out of business.
