Pretty good deal for the P5 schools and athletes.

Exactly why it's bad for all.

I emailed a broadcasting exec at the Big East and he actually responded. He confirmed that next season will be the last for SNY. (Coming from Scott Hecht) head broadcasting exec.

Bummer. I really liked that relationship.

Hopefully they'll broadcast every game on the Fox family of networks. But I think a bunch of them will end up on max. Just because that would be the most annoying outcome.

More likely to have Peacock games. I think Max will simulacast the games but won’t exclusively air them. The games will be spread out between TNT, TBS, TruTV etc. on cable while being on max at the same time.

I agree, the March Madness tournament was on CBS, TNT, TBS & Tru TV. Max was thrown in the mix because they had Bleacher Report (BR) as an addition to MAX subscribers. It was free with a MAX subscription, but I don’t know if that is still true.

I know FloSports had some sort of deal to show some Big East games last season. I assume that's done, too? I only know that because I used a link provided by Villanova to get FloSports for a month for $14 so I could watch Vandy's holiday games in Vegas.

I hope so. I'm not a fan.

Here the link for Peacock's $19.99 annual fee. Promotion ends 6/30/24 Peacock at $19.99: What Is the Annual Discount Special Promo Code?

I don't see any place to put the discount code either when I try to set it up via my TV or when I try to do it on my phone

Even though they said it would expire on June 30, Peacock yanked this deal about a week ago.
