Question MTN / DirectTV deal announced today at SDSU?

Interesting. Wouldn't surprise me if a school announced it before the conference, since we have an idiot running this conference.

It's a guy trying to drum up Directv referrals, so he can reap the financial benefits. It really isn't that hard to tell from his post.

Yes its obvious he wants referrals, but if it wasn't announced for real, nobody is dumb enough to sign up based on that post. Oh wait, they're spaztecs, they may be dumb enough.

Locke just reported it, Ben Bagley called BYU athletic dept and they said "we'll believe it when we see it, we have not heard anything about this yet"

Scotty G says that his sources at the U are saying that last they heard, the deal was close to being done, but they have not heard that its completed yet.

Sure it does, you have free agency, and you can ditch Dish. However, unless there is an exclusivity clause for a year, i would bet Dish announces very soon.
