Message: [QUOTE="SubbaBub, post: 2717332, member: 523"] The B12 head fake proved that there isn't any more money to be had by adding branded schools as there are none left. I'm not convinced a move by Texas to another conference would move the per school needle that much. With the decline in the market for cable rights fees any new model or expansion will be driven by increased in content. Specifically, content controlled by the conference or school. That means more games, more conference games. Games people want to watch individually or can be packaged for subscriptions. That FCS game is now worthless unless it's included in seasons passes, like NFL preseason games. This is where UConn loses again. As the best national brand out there, branding is now not the hot attribute for expansion or money. Adding the sixth Texas school adds just as much content as adding UConn and just might be more valuable to the B12 if selling web access subscriptions is the goal. [/QUOTE]
