You keep saying this. And I know UCF would not WANT to reduce student athletic fees.
We won’t make the same amount of tv money as FSU. The Big 12 money drops in half when OU and Texas leave.
How high are student fees at those schools? There is more to it than butt in the seats.
I’ve heard this said by ppl, but is this confirmed? I don’t think it is…the AAC allegedly isn’t decreasing either, even though ppl said it would when the big 3 left.
The contract the commissioners sign stipulates the amount given with the current teams. If the teams change, the contract will be renegotiated. Both conferences losing top part of conference, will not get the same dollar figure. Plus when we join 4 teams are added and none subtracted. We don’t get a full share anyway for the first couple years. We’ll be lucky to get half of current deal until Big 12 proves it’s just as good.
Interesting. I get the full share stuff for the first couple years for the new teams, but I guess we’ll see about the renegotiation. I think the contract is up in 2025 anyways.
That’s my assumption as well. Hopefully B12 doesn’t sign a long , bad contract. I think the main reason the buyouts for conferences are usually steep is because of the tv contract. Doesn’t really change much of anything else.
What have we actually gotten from AAC media. Deal? I know the new deal was supposed to be $7M annually but I thought it hadn’t actually ramped to there yet. Last I heard it was $3-4, with more money back loaded.
Yep, up to or around $20M, although there should be $5M more for direct media rights. That's something we don't have in the AAC, but we will in the Big XII. So $21-24M overall isn't unexpected.
Which are predicted to be over $25M plus the direct media rights, pushing us over $30M, based on the current ESPN rates based on viewership for the former, as well as expectations in the latter.
I'm looking for the article I read about this a few years ago. Do you have any links you can share on this?
Most articles I read said around 15 mil after Texas and Oklahoma left.
That was what was said, but also NBC CBS and Fox want to bid for more games. Including for big 10. So they are expecting 26 to 35 million.. There will be a bidding war for sure..ESPN must bid as well or risk losing its control over CFB.
We are in Big 12...also if they pay too much for one..It means they will pay a lot for another.
I am not sure what you mean by "direct media rights." If you are referring to Tier 3 media rights, formerly, all B12 teams held their own 3rd tier media rights to sell to whoever they wanted, but that is not the case anymore. All the leftover B12 teams decided to pool their 3rd tier rights and they sold them to ESPN for distribution on ESPN+. Texas still has their own 3rd tier rights...and maybe Oklahoma does too, I am not sure.
Result of a trademark search?
I just don't see the PAC-12 overtaking the ACC or Big XII. I just don't. ACC v. Big XII will be debated, but definitely not PAC-12. The PAC-12 was the bottom of the P5 barrel in Conference Championship Game (CCG) viewership, and even then, the Big XII CCG had more than the ACC and PAC-12 CCGs ... combined!

Paywall. Cliffs? (UCFBS style gladly acceptedI know it’s pretty complicated how this is all payed out but look at the difference between the Big 12 and the AAC just from the 2022 tournament 😳.March Madness Daily: ACC, Big Ten Earn $36.4 million From Tourney
Units from the 2022 NCAA tournament will pay roughly $36.4 million to the ACC and Big Ten over the next six years. The Big 12 was third.
