MWC & ESPN finalizing 7-year media rights deal, increasing MWC media rights deal w/CBS & ESPN to $18M annually
 
Nice of them to stop before making the Final Cut. Anything over $25 mil would feed the conspiracy theorists and firmly place the Asinine-12 below the MTN. When do they announce the new MTN Network? As soon as the A-12 sign?

"The Mountain West's overall media rights deal from CBS Sports Network and ESPN through the 2019-20 academic year is comparable to a seven-year deal struck between ESPN and the Big East, which will be paid $20 million annually from 2014-15 through 2019-20."

My theory on all this still stands: By forcing breakup of Big East, TV could get three entities (MWC, Big East, Conference TBA) on the cheap
 
They certainly did get those two conferences for ridiculously cheap.
