    Does This Reported Clause in Big Ten’s New Media Deal Indicate Expansion Isn’t Over?

    From what we all been reading, we knew next realignment was not going to be far off.  That tweet from Greg Flugaur says it all.

     

    Financially ND is going to get what they want.  They will stay independent as long as they are included with the same deal they have now when it comes to the playoffs.

     

    Big 10 will want more Pac-12 teams to have a 5-6 team pod out west.  Easier scheduling with games.  Maybe Cal might get in to ease the UCLA situation with the UC regents.

     

    As we all know, mis-steps by the Pac-12 previous commissioner, presidents, chancellors through the years put this conference in a weaken venerable situation.  Ugh.

    Interesting tidbit in this article states:

     

    "There could be more financial windfall, though, if the conference adds more schools.

     

    Both Forde and Action Network’s Brett McMurphy reported there’s an escalator clause in the contract that could make the deal increase to nearly $10 billion if the Big Ten expands further.

    Both outlets reported that sources within the Big Ten indicated the league isn’t done expanding.

     

    Who would be the top candidates for expansion? That’s a topic Action Network reported on last month, with the most likely candidates including independent Notre Dame, the Pac-12’s Oregon, Washington, Stanford and California, and the ACC’s Miami and Florida State."

     

    Wind fall could grow upward towards 3 billion more with further expansion?

    WWW.DESERET.COM
    The Power Five conference’s distribution agreement includes an escalation clause that could net the Big Ten nearly $10 billion over the term of the seven-year deal if it expands beyond 16 teams.
