Here are the details on the various TV contracts.
I totally thought it was 83M for the entire 10 year period….lol
WAY better than a wash IMHO! And all geographic fits as well, unlike the B12.
Correct.
AAC added 5 teams in relatively large TV markets.
But even more importantly, probably 5 of the top 15 growing areas in the country. It's important to have schools in places people are moving to.
Hence, let's kick Memphis out.
At least to advertisers is show potential homes they can reach! And as programs grow and establish, viewership will grow with it!
It isn't just "markets" either. These are generally the schools with the better academics, larger endowments, and have larger athletic budgets than smaller schools (such as sun belt universities). This means better future NIL opportunities, nicer facilities, and a higher "quality of life" for the student atheltes.
