Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
Hardcore Husky Podcast: USC and their Fake Tits Move to the Big 10
The boys react to the news that USC and UCLA are leaving the Pac-12 and heading to the Big 10. Will Washington and Oregon follow? Will the Big 12 reach out to Washington for its TV market? Or will the Huskies remain in what will become an expanded Zombie Apocalypse Pac-12? The boys also discuss how regional ties and rivalries were once the lifeblood of college football but now it has given way to the almighty dollar. College football as we knew it is no more. This episode's only shout out was to
@Tequilla.

Rutgers Maryland and Iowa and stuff sucks. Whatever.
We would all jerkoff to hosting Purdue and playing 2001 flashbacks on the "big board"
My only hope is that AM Cauce sees the financial numbers and realizes how much money is at stake.
But it's probably worth it if you're playing some traditional powers and getting Arizona and Colorado off of your schedule.
1.) Either Stalin is too loud or Woolley and JoeE are too quiet, but this one is a hard one for a deaf guy like me to follow. And Woolley's phone kept cutting out (I'm gonna assume right while I was getting a shoutout). Let's clean it up out there, guysm.
2.) Not just this pod specifically, but on the board in general lately, there seem to be a lot of people conflating "media market" with "eyeballs on the football game." For all the shit talk about Seattle's bigger media market than Oregon and Oregon not being a real national brand and bla bla bla, Oregon outpaces Washington in viewers that actually tune in to watch games, and that's all that ESPN or Fox give a shit about. USC outpaces both, but a lot of that has to do with who they play (ND every year, for instance). There were back to back years in which Washington and Oregon played essentially the same schedule (Auburn opener, CCG, Rose Bowl). Both schools dominated the viewing numbers in those respective years, but Oregon's 2019 edged Washington's 2018 by about four million total viewers. There's not a world of difference between them.
Besides, I see more Oregon stickers on cars and Oregon shirts and shit here north of Seattle than I do Husky crap. Hell, I bet you see more Oregon gear than Washington in the fucking UW AD hallway these days thanks to Cohen's idiotic hiring...
3.) @WoolleyDoog is going to have to show us where on the doll the soccer player hurt him. The homophobic, anti-soccer demographics rant was a little strange coming from a guy who reps a town in which the primary sporting interest is a bunch of toned anorexic boys in spandex onesies buttfucking each other without actual penetration.
4.) Jen Cohen is a shitty athletic director because she did things like hire and retain Karen Ramming and twatted at Oregon to rep the North, not because she's a woman and not because a decision made many steps above her pay grade is probably going to leave Washington behind. Besides, throwing her under the bus for UW being left holding the bag is a bit illogical. The podcast starts with how shitty it's going to be if the Huskies are in the B1G (even if it's the best of a bunch of bad choices), then a mere half hour later it's on to how shitty Cohen is for not preempting USC and bailing for the B1G. Lacking a crystal ball, why the hell would she negotiate (well above her pay grade or not) for an outcome that would have pissed EVERYONE off prior to USC unexpectedly doing likewise?
5.) Eh, fuck it...
No team in the conference is going to actually be competitive making 1/10th the revenue while also splitting that revenue with the little sisters of the poor.
USC is serious about football and wants to compete to win. Does UW? All signs point to no.
I'm saddened by the demise of a once proud conference and a lot of regional rivalries but USC isn't to blame for getting in the life boats.
Blame the assholes that ran the ship aground years ago.
