They will likely decline this offer and open up to other networks

If I recall correctly, this contract won't start until 2024 and they are doing this to get a ballpark idea of where they are at. This will go into renegotiation for next summer and the sharks will begin circling around the Pac 12. All of those teams except Oregon St and Washington State could look attractive to the Big XII and ACC. And the B1G certainly has their eyes on Oregon, Washington and Stanford.

I saw each school was worth $60 million apiece but I could be wrong**

This to me demonstrates the Big Ten's weakness.
Maroon Baboon 07/27/22 12:30 PM ET
Between the SEC and Big 10
mancunian 07/27/22 02:28 PM ET
Big Ten IMO
Maroon Baboon 07/27/22 02:59 PM ET
I agree. The B1G is the clear #2 IMO.

This is the quantity, when is big too big and dilutes the product
Mercury 07/27/22 09:44 AM ET
Given those numbers no P10 or B12 teams make sense for the B10
Truthahn 07/27/22 08:39 AM ET
Would Washington or Oregon move ND's needle at all?

Yep, next step is ACC-PAC merger. Value (and safety) with volume

No Cincinnati. Texas Tech.**

Don't think that will work.
hokieZ71 07/27/22 12:31 PM ET
Take Arizona and ASU over Utah & Colorado...
Old Line Hokie 07/27/22 02:29 PM ET
This works as well.
HOO86 07/27/22 12:39 PM ET
We just did away with Divisions, why would they bring them back?
Stech 07/27/22 12:19 PM ET
Right. The purpose of a merger is for teams to be able to get exposure on
Maroon Baboon 07/27/22 12:42 PM ET
We wouldn't have to.
HOO86 07/27/22 12:29 PM ET
Not a fan of VT being back in the Big Least division.**
