It’s just that world of OTT platforms is still basically in its infancy. Other than Netflix and Amazon, few players in the OTT market have much traction and are not really viable platforms for a sports property trying to grow its fan base.

Implied premise: a school with a 6-6 football team is "growing its fanbase". If your games in the lower half of the AAC package (what's now on ESPNews, CBS-SN), I don't think you're building much audience. By being on those platforms, you're serving the audience you already have, but you're not growing because your product isn't THAT attractive.
