Message: [QUOTE="Storrs South, post: 4024377, member: 7275"] I believe what broke up the original Big East was money and more specifically that everyone got even shares of the TV pot despite the Catholic 7 not playing football. In my pie in the sky vision of why and how this would work, basketball members would not get a full share of TV revenue. At the end of the day it can only work if all parties are making more money. That's pretty easy to satisfy on the Big East end, it's just a question of if it adds enough value to FOX who then give more money to the Big 10. The fractional TV revenue may be the key along with the incredible marketability of a Gavitt Games all season long + the potential draw in of luring Kansas to a quasi-Big 10 membership as basketball only could make it worthwhile for all parties. I doubt it happens but fun to think about. [/QUOTE]
