    ***2023-24 Mens College Basketball Thread***

    Fran saying KU is back. He must not be watching the same game I am watching. OU is awful and KU barely beating them. The eye test says that KU is a tier below Houston, ISU and Baylor right now.

    Texas game is on the Longhorn Network

    Would have loved to, but I have been sick all day. So I am pretty much stuck in my hotel room. I was supposed to be at a work function, but didn't go to it.

    Texas game is on the Longhorn Network

    I am in Austin and still couldn't get the game on TV here. Hotel doesn't have LHN. Listened to John and Eric. At least we don't have to concern ourselves with LHN going forward.

    I had to just sit in silence for about 15 minutes to process. Now I can move on. This one stings, but life on the road in the Big 12 is tough.

    I agree. It is long term, not short term.

    You are still talking about a world where they haven’t broken off and alienated non-P2 fans. And Ohio State has 2-3 non-SEC/B10 games on their schedule every year to help keep their record higher. Many others do too. That keeps fan interest higher when those teams play.

    About half of the fans here say they will still watch. About half say they won’t. Now let’s extrapolate that.

    You are missing my entire point. One thing that drives ratings is when two teams that have lofty records play each other. You are not going to have that anymore. It will become NFL-Lite with inferior talent to NFL. So if I want to watch something NFL like, I will watch the one with better...

    It’s not boycotting. My kids don’t watch because they have no interest.

    But people die and more people are born. Over time those new people will have less of an attachment. Also just because ratings are high now means nothing 20 years from now. Baseball was the most popular sport until it wasn’t. America Idol was the most popular show on TV until it wasn’t. And...
