$3.45M per school from ESPN next year (about 100% raise during what was to be the final year of the current deal).

$6.95M per school from ESPN in following years.

The TV contract being worth $83M and change per year.

The numbers are quite specific. With the Memphis president on the TV negotiating committee, they would know...

As for UConn, I looked at the latest Big East Form 990. They distributed about $3.55M to their members. Their TV deal is about 40% of the future American deal.

So UConn can keep football and collect $8.5M from the American. Or UConn can punt on football, pay $10M to leave the American, pay $X to join the Big East and collect $3.55M per year.

I think UConn stays put, at least until the tectonic plates shift in the next round of P5 realignment.

I'm pretty sure we beat to death the fact that UConn also keeps their Tier 3 WBB rights, which nets them an additional $1MM+/year. Not sure the Big East would do that.
