That's not a guess, that was reported by industry experts to The Athletic. UCF provided access to the Florida market as well as a program that had been successful in football along with BYU. The Big 12 TV deal was so high mainly thanks to access to markets like Ohio, Houston and Florida and a solid brand like BYU. If the Legacy 8 had simply merged with the Four Corners the deal would have been smaller. Fox wanted the more Eastern schools and BYU. If they wanted the Four Corners they would have paid for the Pac. [/QUOTE]
