CSNbbs

Cleaning out paper files and ran across one on the MWC CSTV deal from September 2004. Lists conference contracts.

In % terms, there were big gaps, but in actual $s, it was pretty small. ACC and Big 12 were only about $7 million ahead of CUSA, Pac 10 about $3 million and Big East not even $2 million. Now the P5 are $20-$30 million ahead of the AAC and the rest.

ACC 7 yr $258 million deal through 2010 for football-ABC/ESPN
10 yr $300 million deal through 2010-11-Raycom/Jefferson Pilot
(so about $8 million per school per year-9 members back then)

Big 12 7 yr with ABC/ESPN through 2007 for football-no $ listed
4 year $78 million with FSN extending an 8 year $136 million deal through 2011
7 yr ABC/ESPN basketball through 2007-8, no $ listed
($ not all listed, but Big 12 was earning in the range of $7-$10 million)

Big East 7 yr $105 million with ABC/ESPN through 2007 for football
4 year $28 million with ESPN through 2006-7 for basketball
(so about $2.5 million per football school-believe still in 8 fb/13 bb format at that time)

Big 10 10 yr deal with ABC/ESPN through 2007 for football-no $ listed
10 yr deal with ABC/ESPN through 2007 for basketball-no $ listed
Contract with CBS for basketball-no terms listed

Conference USA 8 yr $80 million deal with ESPN through 2008-9
(so around $1 million per school)

MAC 5 yr $3 million deal with ESPN through 2007/8
(so about 50k per school)

Mountain West 7 yr $48 million with ESPN through 2005-6
(so just under $1 million per school)

Pac 10
10 yr $169 million deal with ABC through 2006-football
10 yr $153 million deal with FSN through 2006-football
9 yr $52.5 million deal with FSN through 2005-6
(so about $4 million per school)

SEC CBS & ESPN deals through 2008-9, no $ listed

Sun Belt ESPN through 2007-8, no $ listed

WAC 6 yr $8 million deal with ESPN through 2008-9
(so around $100k per school)

You say the paper was from September 1994 but the specifics list contracts from the 2000s. Am i missing something?

As a follow-up, here's a link to an article from not quite 10 years ago, February 2008. It's called "How the SEC Got Rich", and notes that in 2007, for the first time ever, the SEC distributed $10 million per school and gushes over how much money that is:

Yup. Its really over the last decade or so that the gap got ridiculous.

Just think how much television coverage has changed in the last decade even. In 2007, Missouri at Ole Miss had a regular season game that wasn't on television. Just let that sink in now.

What's sad is that Cincinnati, UConn and USF will be making less money than they were 10 years ago (after the Big East exit fees end next year). They are the only teams making less money.

No, you didn't miss-you caught my mis-typing. Article was from September 2004. Corrected the original.

Another thing of note was the strength of the basketball $.
ACC was $43 million for football and $30 million per year for basketball.
Big East was $15 million and $7 million per year.

Damn, thought this was another Louisville thread.

Well, s0me G5 sch00ls d0 get m0re than 0thers.
