ESPN isn't going to kill the LHN. Its cheap compared to a full Big 12 Network, and it allows the Big 12 to stay together to avoid pushing that inventory to the PAC (which ESPN barely has hooks in).

But I picked five years because in five years either every major program is playing in a Netflix conference, or nothing has re-aligned and new contracts lock the status quo in place for a decade. Either way that will end the debate.

Why five years? There are only 4 years left on the Longhorn Network deal before ESPN kills it.
Isn't that deal until 2031? That's a counting fail on your end, but as has been mentioned ad nauseam here, can't rely on an aggie to even count correctly.

Lol - y'all would kill for your own network You're just too irrelevant for anyone to even offer

I mean, are we not annoying this offseason?

I admit I haven't really been trying personally but I feel like we are doing pretty good making everyone regret we tasted a little bit of success under Jimbo.

Yup!

Weren't you making job cracks at me earlier, Daniel? After you were publicly fired from your job at PWC for fronting as a racist longhorn fan on twitter?

What year is it? Get out of here with those 2010 talking points.

The SEC Network is better than the proposed Lonestar Network (ie the original LHN with A&M and Texas on it until Dodds decided to be a dick about the profit split) or the actual LHN.

The only network that would be better would be the B1G Network only because it pays more.

Yup! I'll be watching our future national seed baseball team later tonight. LHN exclusively shows only the winningest team in Omaha history on that channel.

Y'all should watch! It will prepare you to do exactly what your baseball team will be doing this summer

Bigger win than Johnny cokehead, the single greatest athlete in Texas A&M history (seriously how sad is that?)? Also yes.


Manziel is nowhere close to the single greatest athlete in A&M history. Just because TEXAGS says so doesn't make it true.

Randy Matson has a much stronger claim than Manziel does. So does Stacy Sykora, Ashley Pistorius, Breeja Larssen...hell even Devon Achane.

1/14 of a channel or an entire channel devoted to you?

Ditto, but yall keep showing up all over the state.

Frankly yall dodged a bullet this year. A top 4 football finish AND Texas A&M finally has a higher ranked engineering program?

Yall should be sending thank you cards to the SEC weekly for keeping our annoying asses off your radar and your schedule.

LOL who?????

How sad is it that there is nobody outside of Texas A&M who even know wtf your greatest alumni are.

We're all too distracted by the only distinguished alumni who make a name for themselves like Johnny Manziel and Tony Buzbee. They're perfect representations of that cult

I got one shitty deal (Big 12 grant of rights, which expires in 2025) confused with another (20 year deal for a channel that Xfinity STILL doesn't carry).

Congrats. Is that the same team that lost to A&M earlier this year? Just curious

Give me 1/14 of a channel with the biggest brands in college football also on that channel.

Have you actually watched the LHN? There isn't enough good content coming from one program, and it never gets top tier football games because Fox owns the Big 12 tier 2 rights and they prevent the good stuff from falling to tier 3 (aka the LHN). I think Texas VS Kansas has been the best game on there so far.

Meanwhile ESPN owns the tier 1 and 2 for the SEC when CBS is pushed out so really good SEC matchups are on the SEC Network every year and will be for over a decade.

Its like comparing a public access channel to CNN, they aren't even in the same ballpark on production and content.
