ESPN was around in the 1960s?!?
It means that there is no need for the B1G to ever expand, along as sports fans are held hostage to subscribe to conference networks as part of sports packages.Okay, so what does this mean for us and CRA?
numbers from nebraska board:Off the top of my head, if you factor in everything, I think each B1G school will get somewhere around $45 million per year when the new agreements take effect.

Schools like Oklahoma and Kansas might be more motivated to seek out Big Ten, but now bar is set even higher for B1G
Maryland and Rutgers will not be equal members at the start of this agreement, as they will still be in their "phase-in" period. Nebraska will be an equal member at the start of this new agreement. So whatever the numbers are, 12 schools will receive equal shares, with Maryland and Rutgers receiving less initially, but their shares increase annually until the 4th year of the new deal when they will also be equal members.

It will take a grass roots effort. Someone, perhaps in the state government will need to lead to get the BTN off of cable networks in states without a Big Ten team. Or groups of individuals will need to aggressively lobby their cable companies.I'm going to vomit. What an injustice. Criminal!

I'm fine with that.Northwestern and Rutgers (once it is a fully equal partner) will be making more money per year than Texas even with the Longhorn Network!

You are PAYING for them by having them included by requirement for a "sports package" whether you want to or not. By paying for them, you are supporting conferences that have excluded UConn.Why would anyone do this? If you don't want to watch the station you don't have to.

This whole idea UConn was a candidate for the Big Ten is pretty much completely cooked up by a few dozen people on the Boneyard.
