C-USA 2023 Media Deal - Late to the G5 Party

Add topic

Post

Not that is matters, because we are leaving, but they finally decide to accept the midweek offerings from ESPN:

"C-USA membership approved a linear television-friendly scheduling format for football that sees all October league matchups played on midweek evenings. The broadcast partners will share C-USA’s October weeknight football games on linear television across CBS Sports Network, ESPN, ESPN2 or ESPNU."

Um, SBC did this a few years ago, and it's propelled them ahead of C-USA for the most part in football.

The deal is also worth double for the schools now, up from ~$400K to over $800K.

But thanks for taking care of the issue while we were in the fray.

We are still going to have way more money from our ESPN deal

And we'll be playing a ton of night games if it's like last season's AAC master schedule…

Rice on the road at 8:00 PM anyone?

Agreed! It is still a pathetic deal. Guess MAC and CUSA gonna be equal bottom rung level forever!
