(8), Houston (10), Tampa Bay (13), Orlando (19), San Diego (28), Hartford (30), Cincinnati (34), Memphis (48), New Orleans (52), Greenville (99), Boise (112). The numbers in the parentheses represent that city's place in Nielsen's list of the country's largest television markets. Boise and East Carolina do not extend to major metropolitan areas, but do provide the conference a presence in two additional regions. Wouldn't Navy also bring in the Baltimore TV market? Or is that one in the same as Washington, DC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have heard the ACC may try to entice them to join too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or do they have seperate cable providers? I ask because if 1 school can bring 2 distinct markets, that is a windfall for the Big East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hartford. Boise. Maybe Greenville. Networks know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baltimore and DC are 2 distinct markets despite only being 30 miles apart. They have different local TV networks, cable providers, etc. Baltimore by itself is a small market. I think its ranked in the upper 20's to low 30's. DC is a top 10 market. When you combine the 2 its about the same size market as combining Tampa and Orlando. There aren't a lot of great places to visiit in Maryland, but Annapolis is the exception. Its beautiful. I would love to take a road trip up there with the Bulls. It would give me an excuse to visit friends and family and I just love Annapolis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Washington DC market is No. 8, while Baltimore is somewhere around No. 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
