I posted the reason’s yesterday
First of all Fox pays $20,000,00 not $32,000,00
Second that could recoup the whole amount or more by giving the B1G East a haircut on the new deal without UConn and be totally justified. Fox is more concerned with Big East without UConn as an investment than the $$$.
Third UConn Basketball both men and women’s will have significantly higher ratings vs B12 teams eyeballs  means $$$. That’s just a fact those teams have bigger bases.
B12 football gets exposure into an entirely new and huge market with great potential . That could be enormous.
$20,000,000 is Chump change which will cost them nothing and potentially make them more solvent
   UConn should have hired a good consultant firm if there are still any out there . I think they’re an easy sell from a “longer term” perspective with zero up front cost and little down side risk except to Foxes Big East property. Our problem is conference divisions have be all short term
