Message: [QUOTE="AZHuskiePop, post: 5036530, member: 1609"] If the contract is 80,000,000 that’s not to bad. . I was up last night reviewing all these conflicting numbers and that’s pretty much the number I came up with given the variety of information When you project numbers starting with actual historical numbers is the only way to even be in the ballpark , I’m a numbers nerd with a lot of time on my hands That puts the total conference revenue at about $110 million which for a basketball only conference is very impressive. That’s about the same as the all sport AAC who gets a piece of football playoff money and has more teams. Thats $10,000,000 per team if divided equally However nobody said there has to be an equal distribution of either media or NCAA money. The AAC has a two tiered structure and the lower teams may not like it but their making 8 times more than in CUSA and as much as SDSU, which if your UTSA Is crazy . If DePaul made $4 million they would be making double the entire A10 . Im really not . Comfortable with that model but sn incentive based one which i could model in 10 -15 minutes with hard numbers . AZ crazy plan B If you really wanted to think out of the box and were uneasy with an unequal media distribution as us the only FSB school in the conference. create a separate deal with a minimum of $4-5 million to cover UConn Football games even if the games are on Peacock so ehat . Face it we’re all going to buy it anyway and if you win you might even increase the fan base to include a larger area of the NE . Especially if you use those games as a promotion or informations on Big East Basketball. We all look for off season stuff I think NBC will easily make that money back . In conclusion we’re not going to be able to compete with P conference money so our short term goal is create financial separation between yourself and other schools competing for a promotion. Like in the joke you don’t have run faster than the bear ( P Schools ) to survive you have to run faster then the other guy ( G5) . [/QUOTE]
