Key tweets, and it's all gone to Hell.

I wonder if he’ll have real power there or whether he’ll just be some Schill for the board.

What juice could he possibly have pertaining to Realignment?

Is he going threaten to remove Northwestern from the B1G if they don't let Oregon in?

@CAtlantic is great with keeping this thread current but, I'm not sure this is a Key tweet

I was hoping there was a connection to UConn where he could wield a hammer to get us an invite

I still don’t think he gets it.

I think this actually breathes a little life into the PACX’s long term hopes.

Now this is getting to be more like then NFL, this all about time slots and having that inventory of Pacific Time games is great for that late slot.

The old east coast bias is going to work in their favor.

If the late night window is so valuable, you would think the B1G would have added Stanford, Cal, Oregon and Washington too and then made a late night package that ESPN/ABC could have secured.

What’s valuable to Pac-12 isn’t the same as valuable to the Big 10.

That also could still happen. But who knows maybe they only want to be so big.

If Disney spins ESPN, does Apple or Amazon buy it?

Instead of dipping a toe into the sports world, either one would be all in with that acquisition

Wow, these Connecticut mentions seem to be more and more frequent. Must be the “Jim Mora Effect”.

A lot of money, but that is not the 1.4 to 1.6 billion per year.

Big Ten Lands Historic Media Rights Deal; More Expansion Ahead?

Read on for Brett McMurphy's report about the Big Ten Conference's new historic media rights deal and potential expansion.

www.actionnetwork.com

The contract includes an escalator clause, meaning the deal could approach nearly $10 billion if the Big Ten’s membership increases, network sources said. Even after adding USC and UCLA, the Big Ten “is not done” expanding, sources told Action Network.

Last month, Action Network reported the Big Ten would expand beyond 16 schools and was targeting Notre Dame, along with Oregon, Washington, Stanford and Cal from the Pac-12. Those plans have not changed, sources said this week.

Regardless of whether Notre Dame joins the Big Ten or remains independent, the league still wants to add more Pac-12 schools to help reduce potential travel concerns for USC and UCLA, sources said.
