Earlier this week, the Sports Business Journal reported that the Big 12's television deal with Fox would go from $19.5 million annually to somewhere between $60-70 million annually.

Now, sources indicated to the publication that the deal could be worth $90 million annually, a 13-year deal worth $1.1 billion total. A reporter from Bloomberg television tweeted the same thing on Wednesday afternoon, citing a person familiar with the negotiations.

That's a 350 percent raise in television revenue, and that growth looks even better when you consider that the money would be divisible between 10 schools, rather than 12 after the exits of Nebraska and Colorado.

Sucks to be Neb and the Buffs

This crappy league will be the most well funded crappy league in history

This crappy league will be the most well funded crappy league in history

Then we better go undefeated in this crappy league.

Third tier network consisting of the league's third tier schools to help monetize the league's third tier media rights. It just keeps getting better & better for OU & texass.

He'p me on the math, somebody. I thought OU made something like $15 mill this last year. 60-70 divided among 10 isn't close. 19 divided among 12 is worse yet. Were we:
1) getting money from other tv contracts as well?
2) getting THAT much more than other schools?

I'm sorry, but I have forgotten most of this crap since last summer's kerfuffel and am really too tired of it to spend a lot of time researching. If someone knows off the top of their head, great, otherwise I suppose I'll wait for the inevitable newspaper article.

That was a third tier triple post.

I am pretty tired of hearing about tv contracts and pay outs. Hornfans is littered with "we just got our own tv deal with espn worth X amount of dollars" in rebuttle to OU only making chump change on the fiesta bowl. Yeah, they could give two ****s whether or not they blew penises last year and didnt even make it to a bowl, but hey, they are getting paid so others can see them get spanked at home. Their smack is sounding more like the dooshes from college station.

Who gives a **** how much OU is pulling in a year for TV or how sub standard the commentary is. Turn down the ****ing volume and just watch. Let the big 12-2 foot the bill for the fiesta bowl tickets. So what. At least OU is there, unlike the fags in Austin. I will take BCS games and conference championships over a bank roll. It is ****ing football. Scoreboard trumps earning potential in my book.

This is just the Fox contract. Big 12 was also shown on ABC and ESPN.

I know where you can find some for 20 bucks a pop as long as you don't mind they're saying "2010 Big XII South Champion" encrusted in cubic zirconia

I'm gonna get me a gold watch and some black socks.

[Sooner74]

Cause that is just the tier 3 contract which I don't know if OU and UT are getting a split of due to their new networks. ESPN also has a contract and the networks owned by Texas and OU are also paying out. It's a sweet deal for us and many teams will be scraping to join the Big XII-II in 2014, I believe when ESPN renegotiates.
