    I saw that last night. I wonder on what basis they would give the Big East less money than the ACC. Can't help but wonder if the Big East will be filing a suit in the near future?

        If the big east gets excluded, I too see an anti-trust lawsuit coming out. (At least I hope they do) Especially if the ACC is included with the Big boys because if you look at on Field performance the New Big East kicks the Sh@# out of the new ACC.

          All I can say is that someone in the Big East administration must have seriously pi$$ed off someone in one of the other power conferences a few years ago (maybe Trangese flirted with Delaney's wife or something) - because no matter what happens on the field, the rest of college football does its best to diminish the Big East at every opportunity. The ACC has been doing its best to play the part that everyone says the Big East plays (the losers), but they aren't the ones who get called out and told they should play 'big boy football' and stupid stuff like that. It's maddening to try to figure this stuff out.

            This is going to come across as cold but I wouldn't be sad if Delaney dropped dead of a heart attack in the very near future. F@#!% his pompous a$$ and his Big Ten elitist mentality.
            "In the morning he would read the Bible with another coach. Then, in the afternoon, he would go out and cheat kids who had probably saved up money from mowing lawns to buy those raffle tickets. That's Jim Tressel." - former colleague to Jim Tressel as quoted in Sports Illustrated.

              Big East stance on future BCS = adelson
              As a quick refresher, here is where the Big East stands as it enters the meetings, with interim commissioner Joe Bailey and senior associate commissioner Nick Carparelli representing the league.

              •The Big East is in favor of a four-team playoff, with the current bowl structure incorporated into the semifinal round. The league is fine with a neutral-site national championship game.

              •Forget about a selection committee. The Big East is not in favor a group selecting the four teams to make the playoff, ala the NCAA basketball committee.

              •The Big East believes conference champions should be heavily considered.

                Wednesday's detail-oriented BCS meeting at an O'Hare Airport hotel produced no definitive conclusions on playoff structure, access and location of games, although a four-team model continues to receive the most attention. The commissioners will report to their presidents before meeting again June 19-20 in Chicago. The BCS presidential oversight committee meets June 26 in Washington.

                Rather than present one unified recommendation to the presidents on June 26, the commissioners likely will outline the options they've discussed and the evolution of the negotiations.

                The only thing off the table, according to BCS executive director Bill Hancock, is the "status quo." And while neither Hancock nor the commissioners ruled out a plus-one model, which some presidents prefer, their focus is on a four-team playoff.

                  BCS executive director Bill Hancock issued the following statement Wednesday afternoon:

                  "We made progress in our meeting today to discuss the future of college football's post-season. We are approaching consensus on many issues, and we recognize there are also several issues that require additional conversations at both the commissioner and university president levels.

                  "We are determined to build upon our successes and create a structure that further grows the sport while protecting the regular season. We also value the bowl tradition and recognize the many benefits it brings to student-athletes.

                  "We have more work to do and more discussions to have with our presidents, who are the parties that will make the final decisions about the future structure of college football's post-season."

                    The selection committee idea sounds worse by the minute....

                    It seems we are nearing the end of the ticket guarantee....

                        BCS changes: Why now? Who wins and who loses?

                        NOT SO BIG EAST. There have been six major conferences. The Big East, after being plundered by expansion, is on the verge of being demoted to second-tier status. How much less it gets in revenue from the playoff than the Big Ten, SEC, Big 12, Pac-12 and ACC will be something to
