SBJ reporting ESPN will get 2nd half of B1G TV contract

Avg of 190M/yr. 240M from FOX plus 10M from CBS for basketball. Link below has interesting details about pick selection, etc

It will be interesting to see if this has any impact on the ACCN.

But I've been told Maryland's ruining that league and ESPN's out of money. ** -- chuckd4vt 06/20/2016 11:45AM

Is that a red herring, or a straw man, or ... what? -- Will Stewart

Rutgers is the problem, Maryland is not the solution -- BigCrumpy 06/21/2016 11:32AM

How are either a "problem" for the Big Ten? ** -- reestuart 06/21/2016 11:55AM

Exactly. B1G got precisely what they wanted w/ UMd & RU ** -- marcbvtgm 06/21/2016 10:49PM

Yep. The proof is in the pudding. The Big Ten is cashing in, big-time. -- reestuart 06/22/2016 11:44AM

10-4. I do think it's quite relevant. -- chuckd4vt 06/20/2016 6:50PM

Will there necessarily be an announcement from the ACC by July 1? -- hokie77 06/21/2016 10:41AM

Media Markets -- VTHOKIE21020 06/20/2016 3:20PM

Yes - that was part of the B1G's motive. The other -- 133193Hokie 06/20/2016 6:14PM

That was the main reason for adding UMCP & RU... -- Old Line Hokie 06/20/2016 3:44PM

For the Big Ten Network subscribers, YES. For this Tier 1 Deal, NO. -- HOO86 06/20/2016 3:24PM

It further dials in current market value. Timing is interesting. -- daveinop 06/20/2016 09:47AM

I guess they're not about to collapse. ** -- reestuart 06/20/2016 08:43AM

B1G is not gonna collapse. B12 ???? ** -- East Cobb Hokie 06/20/2016 2:07PM

I was being a smart-arse. There's a poster around here that keeps posting -- reestuart 06/20/2016 2:36PM

Plus Michigan is ready to leave the Big 10, that is my favorite. ** -- goldendomer 06/20/2016 5:07PM

Actually, the best was an extension of that -- dayooper 06/20/2016 9:04PM

How did I miss that one. Pure gold ** -- goldendomer 06/20/2016 9:53PM

I do think there was "something" to the PSU leaving rumor. -- chuckd4vt 06/20/2016 6:45PM

I have my doubts that an interim President and interim AD would make a move -- HOO86 06/20/2016 7:41PM

LOL. That's the best one. ** -- reestuart 06/20/2016 5:32PM

ESPNU will see far fewer Big Ten games than it has in the past. -- Colonel Jessup 06/20/2016 08:30AM

Didn't think ESPN could keep spending so much ** -- VTHOKIE21020 06/20/2016 08:28AM
