I suspect that Cinci is very willing to be the poor stepsister of the wealthy family The Bearcats would do anything to live in the mansion - even in the servants' quarters. There's a lot of ego involved still.
Clearly, part of the problem here is that AAC rights are such a bargain for ESPN. The profit margin, as a percentage of revenue, is likely much higher for the AAC rights (which were very lightly competed) than for the heavily competed P5 rights.
That would be athletic suicide IMHO. Trying to compete with better brands with less than half (or worse) the budget in most cases.

Our chili is a topping for spaghetti or hot dogs. I've NEVER known anyone who eats Cincy chili by itself in a bowl with a spoon. It's not the same thing. We eat regular chili too.
Go eat some mustard-BBQ and LET IT GO ALREADY.
Also CincyBro, calling out typos in message board is so pathetic. Yeah he misspelled their....but at least he used the right one. And "gonna" isn't even a word but everybody uses it. So it's okay to use gonna but not okay to make a typo?
I hate this place but I can't stay away.
Not your place to decide what is right, when you add something worthwhile to any board it certainly will be the first time.
I never said your post wasn't right I just said it was pathetic, meaningless....aka not worthwhile.
I just want UC fans to be better that is all. I am proud of UC and I want to be proud of our fan base and conference, but it's hard to be as a member of this board.
Go back and reread the post. The jist was to nail ECU on their academics and I used that as an example, just like they do UC in football. ECU fans got it. Don't need you to be self righteous for all UC fans, Bearcat #1 already does that.

ESPN essentially valued the entire AAC at $20mm suddenly a UConn or Cinci is now worth $20mm individually simply because they get to schedule Texas and OU? It makes no sense.
We are worth that but Tulane and Tulsa are worth about -$35mm combined. If anything you should be thanking UC and UCONN for keeping this conference afloat.
You are all welcome.
C'mon now....we're still worth $1 more than you!!!!
I'll give UCONN all the credit in the world for their amazing basketball program. Cincinnati has peaked in football and is very good in basketball....hope you turn it around.
