    TO BE FAIR ASU’s online offerings and partnerships with corporate partners like the beautiful Starbucks corp were considered best in class for online and hybrid education before that became the hotness during the fake news pandemic.

    When I think of ASU I definitely first think of their academics.

    There's no magic deal. CBS and Fox are out. ESPN doesn't need a huge slate of games. Gotta think Amazon and Apple know this and won't pay a premium

    Trying to understand how worst case they become one of the largest schools in the country. I know just the casting couch side of ASU but I'd assume the students go and party at games.

    Imagine how little the PAC would have garnered without Prime and SMU raising their value.
