Purdue or Perdue? Somewhere in here, there is a chicken joke to be made.
They are known for a big drum and . . . That's all I got.

Funny thing is Texas says theirs is bigger...They are known for a big drum and . . . That's all I got.
BE could be looking at games being shunted aside in favor of B1G, so how is that good for the BE?
And, if the ACC breaks up, the best of the old BE is going to get back together and squat right on top of the former also-rans.
Good read.
Frank the Tank's Slant: B1G TV Deal Coming Out Like a Fox
Digest this comment: "In effect, we’re about to enter into a world where Rutgers and Northwestern are going to earn significantly more TV money than Florida State, Oklahoma, USC and even Alabama and Notre Dame."
Another comment within:
>>In any event, the short length of the TV deal means that conference realignment talk might cool down in the immediate term, but will pick up a huge amount of steam in the next 5 years. Whether it’s a coincidence or not (and I tend to think “not”), the end of the 6-year deal term in 2023 is shortly before the expiration of the Big 12’s grant of rights agreement in 2025, which makes any possible damages for a Big 12 defector to be much lower and/or negligible compared to a Big Ten windfall.<<
But the Big East will have a better name than the North Atlantic Coast Conference.
But Rutgers would need $50 million more a year to just equal FSU athletic revenue for 2014-15. Like most, he doesn't look at the total revenue picture.

You'll soon be cheering "Go Nads!"
The B1G's Associate Athletic Director, Robert Ickles, is on record being against the formation of NADS. It will be interesting to see if his objection prevails or if we loudly cheer "Go Nads" to test Ickles reaction.
His statement that Rutgers is going to earn significantly more TV money than Florida State is NOT incorrect though...
