‏@flugempire   ...how the diversity of footprint creates even more leverage and flexibility for Delany in TV negotiations. For these reasons..and others...

‏@flugempire   ...the next Big 10 expansion will be out East again. RUT and UMD additions to the Big Ten were homeruns, not singles...or doubles.

@azescobar1 Delany is making friends out East. Delany wants more Eastern Eyeballs. UCONN is a viable player in Big 10 eastern expansion

@azescobar1 UCONN can give the Big 10 marketable BTN content...content which will drive higher ratings on BTN...bigger TV ad buys.

@azescobar1 Remember, Big Ten schools profit from bigger BTN ad buys....unlike 99% of other universities tier 3 individual contracts.

@azescobar1 I do think UCONN needs the right partner for it to actually happen (VT) but I don't see expansion until 2019.
