I saw the Brett tweet on this. I think it is for the conference, not per team. That is about 2mil per team. Perhaps only for tier one rights however.

It's not per team. It's probably the total payout per year for all of the teams combined. If that's the case, it's a little more than CUSA.

Potentially less than $2 million per year? It looks like we will make less in television money than now, even during a time of heavy tv contract inflation.

>??

 

That's TOTAL

It means $2 Million per year per team

 

Let's hope that's for basketball ONLY, given that NBC will be the carrier for the C7 League

 

...Or else we're screwed

Edit: I'm starting to to think this is for basketball only

 

Doesn't make sense for such a low amount when you consider the schools that will stay in the Big East in regards to basketball, vs what the C7 will be making.

PLUS the football side with large markets. 

 

Also given that, as I mentioned, NBC will be the carrier for the C7 basketball league.

And Aresco has stated repeatedly that the Big East will split by several networks.

 

 

On a side note.  MuMurphy has been pretty wrong/late/fuzzy with any breaking news on the Big East ever since Marinatto left.

He no longer has the inside source that he used to.

Hard to tell, but it looks like all sports

 

"The source said the conference call didn't focus on expansion but rather on the exit of the seven, as well as a new television contract. The Big East has a football contract for fall 2013 but nothing for men's basketball in 2013-14.

 

NBC Sports Network has verbally offered the Big East between $20 million to $23 million a year for six years to acquire the league's media rights, sources told ESPN's Brett McMurphy on Saturday. It is expected to submit an official offer next week. Once the Big East receives it, the league must give ESPN, the Big East' s current rights-holder, the opportunity to match the deal."

Somethings not right

 

How can the Big East with Football and Basketball be worth HALF than a C7 Basketball only conference

How can the Big East be worth LESS than the MWC?

 

How is McMurphy and the ESPN source knowing and leaking what's going on between the Big East and NBC?

 

 

Somethings smells a bit fishy
