A lot more TV sets up that way.
Yep…they did last year too.
Big Ten Network is 51% owned by the conference so they get 51% of the profit. SECN is entirely owned by ESPN which then pays the conference a rights fee. More risk for the BT that way but also more profit, and BTN is widely carried (unlike Pac-12)
Nope…first time SEC has been surpassed.

That too. They’re set up to make a ton of money, thanks to all those TV sets Richard mentioned. Jim Delany is earning those bonuses. You’d think they wouldn’t mind sparing some money for a third assistant in baseball and softball but NOOOOO.
They cannot play base or soft ball up there until July.
