Your guy does have 101 followers on medium…whatever that is.

Well its hard to say...because VT draws such terrible ratings that they hardly ever put them on a channel that reports ratings, (slight sarcasm inferred...a little), except for when they play major opponents that could be driving the ratings instead of them. Although I would love to know why they never put them on anything but streaming....I am sure someone here has an idea.
The supposed top source...sportsmediawatch only has 3 games for last season with data on VT, and they maxed out about 1.5M +/- viewers for those 3 games.
2021, would be a great year to compare Toledo to VT, because they both played ND, but you guessed it, there is no data for either one on sports media watch, because they were streamed.
Overall, do I think Toledo draws as well as VT...No, but they draw so poorly that they rarely get put on anything but ACCN, so their is very little data from recent years on their viewership. But then again I never claimed that they did, thats what someone else insinuated I was saying.
But I have been told by a few here that sportsmediawatch is the go to for such data.

Not my guy, but ok, those links actually were posted by someone else before I quoted them, too, and again just a data source.
You are welcome to post links to your info, you seem to have all the info.
I mean he has been posting on his site a lot longer than the month you have been here. I mean he has almost as many followers on his site as you have posts.
I guess you could click through and see where the writer also writes for, if you care. Hes not really that important, especially not as important as you probably. But who he is or where its from, is not really important. He just compiled and posted the data, and posted his methodology. I guess you can post where his data is incorrect anytime, besides having flaws to his methodology. We all know those.
Better yet just post the correct data that you know is correct and sources with all those high credentials like Stewie Mandel or something....because having those creds matter, those types never spin anything for clicks.

Austin Sports Anchor Calls Brett Yormark's Comments Classless, Clueless and Calculated
Stop me if you have heard this before: Texas fans are not happy right now. We aren’t even playing football games yet and the Burnt Orange faithful is already fired up. It would be one thing if this was November and they had already lost four or five games, but the season hasn’t even started […]

The first rebuttal in this article is spot on. He was at some Texas Tech event attended by Texas Tech fans, so of course he was going to make them laugh or stroke their egos. I'm sure Yormark wants Tech and all the other schools to defeat Texas and Oklahoma this season as well, but Yormark read the crowd and played to it.
Texas fans are just thin skinned. They're ego is going to constantly be getting punched left and right in the SEC.
In your case, I call em as I see em.
3rd grade math is just that, 3rd grade math. I am sorry I can't explain to you that calculating an average by inserting zero for an unknown result is bad analytics.
I look forward to you providing a more accurate and transparent data source. Better yet, maybe you would be better off making arguments that don't include numbers.
You are welcome to provide more data, with better numbers.
Sorry you dont see a source that only has numbers from 25% of the games is not any better.
You really think you are smart, but I have yet to see you post anything that has any sources to back you up.
You keep saying the same thing over about the math....yet I have acknowledged that flaw in almost every post. You really think you are something..but by the way you act, I would guess you are about 15, at least you act that way.
Grow up. You are not special, you are not that smart, and you really act like a jerk. And when you act like one you will be treated like one.
Maybe for once you could acknowledge the flaws in your source. And maybe for once you could post an actual link, yourself instead of telling everyone else to.
I believe I posted 3 different sources yesterday with links, on the subject. You posted where you got your idea, but couldnt be bothered to even post a direct link, which is something I have never seen you do.
Stay in your fantasy land, where you are the smartest person in the room, the rest of us are out here in reality.
Didn't we just have a couple year period where students didn't attend classes at all; where things were online only?

Half of spring 2020. That's about it for an entire online only experience. Otherwise, some were online, some were hybrids, and whatever from there.
I seem to remember someone trumpeting the Houston market (#78) in an earlier comment. (and now we have them)
There are a lot of problems with Houston. It is for sure a hope that they grow being in P4, but they are a project and will take time to see how they do.
Houston has problems like being a NFL town, not even being the popular school in the city not to mention the State. They struggle in attendance and viewership, only time will tell how it goes with them.
Isn't it interesting that the SEC is still a regional conference. They have had their pick of schools where they commonly say Y'all and Howdy and still fly the Stars and Bars. If they expand again (add 2 to 20), it will be in the southeast, no North Carolina or New York or California schools. As it is they made a mistake with Missouri. It turns out that Missouri has too many Northerners for them.
It looks to me like it will be Clemson (South Carolina just across the line from Georgia) and one of the two Florida schools: Florida State or Miami. While everyone seems to be rooting for Florida State, if the conference wants to spread the fans/viewership across Florida, the choice would be Miami, as Florida U already has the north. This also means that which ever one is left to the B12, will be a big get for the conference.
Stay Tuned
I agree with the premise here. They already have the market cornered in the region of the country that far and above cares the most about College Football. The value of the conference will continue to grow even if they hold at current membership.
I disagree with the bolded above. NC (and Virginia) make sense culturally, and there are teams that would be enticing. Virginia and UNC don’t make sense academically for the SEC, but VT and NC State wouldn’t shock me.

Classless: OUT leaving in the middle of the night behind everyone’s back, trying to push everyone to the AAC.
Clueless: OUT to how many games they will win going forward.
Calculated: the size of the checks that they will be cashing that their fans won’t get a penny of.
The problem is that the Texas fans are having buyer's remorse. They are considering Nebraska in the B1G and Missouri and A&M in the SEC, and have concluded that they have probably played in their last Conference championship game and last Playoff game.
Bama, LSU, Georgia, Auburn and their gang will see that they don't get too big for their britches next year.
I only problem with this is "don't poke the sleeping bear". Let's not give the most talented team extra motivation or bulletin board material. We all knew it was always there, under the surface, but now its out in the open.
On BY's remarks alone, I'll bet that game garners a much larger audience. The guy is a marketing genius.
Yeah I don’t think texas or their fans are having buyers remorse’s at all. That legit pretty wild to think.
It’s not correct data. In the five games in which Houston had viewing data they had a total of 2.908 million viewers. Now most of us would divide that by 5 to get 581k viewers/game. Only the idiot on that website would divide by 12 to get the erroneous 242k per game. Let’s stop using those numbers to make a point.
The SEC might have buyer's remorse in a few years, however.
