When you look at it that way it all makes sense. Don't market just a superior product, market access and nuance the superior product doesn't exploit.

That's actually a pretty good comparison.

A perfect comparison, and it'll be born out when the Big XII ceases to exist within the next decade.

I'm sure Kansas, OSU, ISU will love the demotion to a gimmicky, inferior product vs their key peers Mizzou, Oklahoma, and Iowa.

Like, this sort of works for the NFL and NBA (Olympics are the OG of this) when they are so tapped out in terms of drawing actual sports fans to their superior product that they need to add "nuance/access" (read, reality TV aspects that attract primarily women or broader entertainment like halftime music shows) to maybe eek out another 5-10% growth. This isn't actually going to work for the Big XII in any way close to that because the new fans they are hoping to attract, since they don't care enough about the sport to watch it already, would just watch the NFL on Sundays.

This is peak chairs on the titanic stuff. "Let's make the core product worse in hopes we can attract new fans." It never, ever, EVER works when there is any actual competition. Because actual sports fans that casually watch Big XII games can just switch to ACC/SEC/B1G games when the "nuance" crap annoys them.

okay, boomer

That attempted insult has no power over me. It's inaccurate and even if it were applicable, insults instead of addressing the argument is proof you've lost.

Everyone will know it's over when there are interactive capabilities and an option of 4 possible next plays and the audience picks what is run.

As to the Kansas fan, I wouldn't worry about being left behind. Once pay for play is here and basketball is impacted Kansas will be in either the SEC or Big 10. Your hoops value doubled is more than some football additions are bringing in.

Twitch plays offensive coordinator would be a huge improvement for Iowa fans.
