As one source at the Big East said on Saturday, “ESPN over matched the offer. The deal they offered in terms of exposure is better than the deal we have now in football. It was more than fair.”

Two ways I can read this:
1. ESPN went above what NBC was offering in terms of exposure (number of slots; or
2. ESPN offered more than what they have now, but less than NBC - but because it's on ESPN instead of NBC, that's considered more exposure.
We shall see interpretation is correct.

Well if you read that statement, " better exposure than current deal" then I'm expecting to see more access to TV games on ABC,ESPN,ESPN2 and ESPNU than we had this past year and that would be huge and trump the NBC access.

Does anyone else remember the days when Wilkie, along with ArmyMike, were by far the best Louisville posters. Yea, those days are gone. WIlkie's account must've been hacked by an ******* 18 months back.
No

RE: "ESPN over matched the offer"
I am glad that we don't have to see another "do you know what Louisville's athletic revenue is" thread.
Every other day some of those guys were posting the same **** over and over again.

What?
I said that Wilkie used to be a great poster.
You said No.
I said that it was when yall were in the MAC
Then you go on some butthurt tirade about being OG.
Then I said that I wasnt talking smack.
Other than low self esteem and possible issues that require massive compensation, I dont really understand where you are getting all of this.
