Because of stipulations by NBC, current Big East new 7-year TV deal can be terminated if 2 more schools leave

 

Brett McMurphy â€@McMurphyESPN

If 2 teams from UConn, Cincy, Temple & UH leave; or 1 of those & 1 of remaining teams, new TV deal for former Big East can be terminated

 

 

LOL .... So the mighty UCF and USF could both leave and they wouldn't care .... Humbling, isn't it?

Philly and Houston are very big cities.  Even if those schools don't get top billing at home, losing those markets from the conference hurts more than the I-4.  Everyone in this conference is separate

So, we're getting 1.5 million per year instead of the previously reported 1.8 or 2.0.  Compared to the "power 5" it's close enough to 0 to not really worry about at this point.

I guess so. It seems like those are the schools, in order, for expansion. Ouch

So it appears USF is not as valuable to ESPN as UConn, Cincy,Temple, or Houston.  That could be why USF hasn't received an invite to join the big-boy conferences.

Of course, that's assuming the BM is correct ....

Sadly it appears that Houston and Temple have both just jumped USF in the pecking order to get out.

Not as valuable to NBC... ESPN could not change the language of the NBC offer, that was their safety net

Exactly.  I'm not so sure he is correct on this one.

http://espn.go.com/college-sports/story/_/id/9071683/big-east-media-rights-deal-terminated-two-more-school-exits-according-sources

 

That was made by NBC Sports Network, which included a stipulation that the seven-year deal could be terminated if the league lost two more schools, sources said. ESPN could only match NBC Sports Network's deal and not change the language of the contract, sources said.

 

NBC Sports Network's contract divided the league into Group A (Connecticut, Cincinnati, Houston and Temple) and Group B (the remaining members), sources said.

or they expect us both to leave and they figured that into the original contract B)

Hopefully, this will bring some people back down to Earth in regards to where USF is on the conference realignment totem-pole. NBC/ESPN just outed the left over schools with the most value.
