Maybe we can get the CW to exclusively cover MAC football and move our late season games back to Saturdays? And, an exclusive tie-in for the MAC champion to go to the Snoop Bowl?
As a bargaining chip, make an offer to extend the Snoop youth football league to MAC country.
And that is fine. It’s bowl season, it’s relevant to talk about other bowl games and the CFP for a couple of minutes in between game action. The difference was they spent the same amount of time on the CFP as they did on Snoop’s youth football league, how he became a Steelers fan, and other football-related topics, rather than beating the dead horse and treating the game as an afterthought while promoting other games for 3.5 hours.
There are media reports that Snoop Dogg made the Arizona Bowl unique by paying NIL money to the players, likely justified by their participation in a football clinic for local kids. Does anyone know how much money our players received?
The downside of the Arizona Bowl (which I loved and have no complaints) is the tv ratings. Lowest bowl rating of last week at 567k. Last year Toledo vs Wyoming had over 1M. Pop Tarts Bowl the problem
If Miami got an average tuition of $50,000 and attracted 4,500 new students that would equal $225M. There is no way the Snoop Bowl was worth an entire freshman class
I would like to see the calculations and strip whatever economist wrote that calc of his degree
It’s not based on getting 225m in return, it’s probably based on how much it would cost to run an ad campaign with the amount of reach we got on tv and social media by just playing in the game
What one-sided financial transaction are you seeing? Nobody is saying it’s one-sided. IMO, it’s fairly straightforward that for the cost of just under $10mil (one year’s expenses for football), Miami received the equivalent of a $225mil ad campaign. That’s a pretty standard metric because we know the going rate for eyes. That visibility can easily be compared to the views the university has received for the marketing campaigns they’ve run.
Assuming it’s a 1:1 relationship with enrollment is a fallacy as well. No advertising campaign has a 100% success rate. Campaigns are judged by what that passthrough rate ends up looking like - what do application numbers end up looking like
If Snoop said Miami Ohio I would rather you sit this one out because I want my high school all stars to play this game but here is $225M for your troubles I hope we would say thanks snoop dogg for the $225M - I would hope everyone would understand that. I mean Miami might take that deal at $2.5M
Advertising rates are ridiculous if somebody is charging $225M for the snoop dogg exposure
