This is tiresome. You and I clearly have different opinions on what credible means. So be it. I keep pointing out that you don't have reliable numbers, and you keep wanting me to come up with "real numbers" to disprove your projections. Kind of hard for me to prove something that I contend is unknowable.Originally posted by BYUMizzou View PostI see what you did there. You asked for a projection.

So what you're saying is that taking the known dollar figures that ESPN is paying for Tier 1 and Tier 2 games in other conferences and then taking a fraction (30% to 50%) and applying it to BYU isn't reasonable?Originally posted by San Juan Sun View PostThis is tiresome.

I guess that also means you'd disagree with a comparable sales approach to appraising real estate.

O U C H,
The new deal will be divvied up even more: the football portion between 10 full members and four football-only members and the basketball revenue by 18 members.
Based on a future 14-member football league (in 2015, the Big East adds Navy as a football-only member and has plans to add a 14th school, preferably Air Force or BYU) and an 18-member basketball league, the media rights deal would be worth the following amounts per school annually:
A $130 million deal per year (as speculated by Pilson) would be worth $8.66 million each for the 10 full members; $6.5 million each for the four football-only members (Boise State, San Diego State, Navy and TBA); and $2.16 million each for the eight non-football members.
A $60 million deal per year (as speculated by CBSSports.com's sources, slightly better than their low end) would be worth $4 million each for the 10 full members; $3 million each to the four football-only members; and $1 million each to the eight non-football members.

Why is that an ouch? Because they conceivably could have gotten more last year?

Which is why the blog post about the Big East finalizing their TV situation before coming at BYU "from a position of strength" was such a funny line.Originally posted by Coach McGuirk View Post"It's devastating, because we lost to a team that's not even in the Pac-12.

For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."
