SDSU beat writer on possible TV deal value...
http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/2011/...=1#article

Quote:Sources said that SDSU has been working with media consultants who have advised them on what they could earn from a new TV deal in a newly constructed Big East. The lowest estimate was $6.4 million annually. By contrast, SDSU gets about $1.5 million annually from its current league, the Mountain West.

If that's a 10 team league its $64 million per year for football.
12 teams: $76.8 million.

And that's without basketball money.

Well there you have it. Sure all the Big East teams want to keep the AQ status but more importantly in the long run is how to maximize tv revenues and this is where the Big East will still be the 6th best conference out there and why is the best deal possible for most of our schools

That was the lowest estimate too. Hopefully they're right.

A dramatic financial sea-change has occurred the past two years. Before then, the big money was BCS money, so AQ status was the be-all. But TV money now dwarfs BCS money, and our TV contract sucks. With the loss of the 3 biggest 'brand names', i'm not sure how much we can improve it but we have to try ...

I sure hope it is much greater than $6.4M for football. I would like to see the football revenue be anywhere from $8M to $12M per year. Hopefully, it is more closer to the $12M value.

I hope it's $20 million value. But, i also realize that networks know they are paying for Rutgers vs USF, not Michigan vs Penn State, so I'm kind of doubtful ...

I'll take the halfway mark at $10 million. The advertisers care about who's playing obviously but the important thing is that it's the only live product that people will actually sit through commercials to watch. The money will go up, it's just a question of how much...

What the Big East will have going for it isn't so much the caliber of football brands, but the fact that NBC/Comcast wants to get in on some college sports. That point alone will probably inflate the value of the tv deal quite a bit than what it's actually worth.

We better hope that's the way they are looking at it.

This is where I think we end up. About half what the power conferences get...maybe even a little above half if we get lucky.

It will be interesting to see what ESPN offers or will they be willing to lose the Big East to NBC.

IMO, it's a foregone conclusion that we'll see a move to Comcast. Wasn't that BYU's biggest sticking point (or one of their top 3).

Yes but the question will be whether ESPN tries to bid which would raise the contract cost for the winner

Multiple factors that will drive up the TV value:

1. TV markets - BE got some nice TV markets
2. Timing - NBC/COMCAST is dying for some TV content
3. Championship game - It will add some $$$$$
4. Able to provide games across multiple time zones - Some fans might think it makes no sense to havea conference across the country, but the ability to provide games all day from 9AM to 5PM could be an advantage to a national network like NBC/Comcast.
5. Should be some interesting East/West match ups that will draw some crowds from East and West coasts. EX: I would like to see how UCONN would match up against Boise St.
6. We still play some fine basketball with some big time national teams even without Pitt and Cuse.

NBC/Comcast is looking for content and would like another big college sports footprint in addition to Notre Dame and a few regional agreements. I think the MWC has a current contract with NBC/Comcast.

The Big East would be a pretty good property to have. I'll admit it's definitely no SEC, B1G, Pac but should be able to compete nicely against ACC.

Would like to see a new Big East network too, that would add to the revenue stream for all Big East sports.

ESPN prefer killing Big East to engaging a bidding war with Comcast/NBC.

ESPN is run by a group of smart people. Of all the six BCS conferences, ESPN only controls ACC 100%. We may see ACC invite UConn and Rutger/Louisville just for the sake of killing Big East even they don't get Notre Dame. Right now ACC people are saying Notre Dame could come as the 17th member of ACC. Wow, that is now superconference size plus one!

Moving to the ACC for UConn & Rutgers is extremely unlikely, and I'm ok with that. I like the New Big East - especially since the Huskies will be coming to Dallas.
