This is OT to UC, but definitely OT to various threads about the business of college football, media rights deals, etc. (The AAC deal is up next year)> CUSA got a new deal with CBS Sports, and it looks like they sublicensed some of the content to Facebook. Not sure of the revenue side of this deal, but per a tweet from the North Texas AD it represents significantly more revenue for the conference.

SBC, C-USA, MAC are all locked up between ESPN (MAC), CBSSN (C-USA), and MULTIPLE Providers (SBC).
On deck is BYU and MW. Once these two are out of the way the real bidding for the AAC begins.
My take is $3M for BB along based on viewership compared to Big East contact with Fox.
Add $5M or $6M for FB including Championship game and Navy home games.
Bank it😎
