[QUOTE="Buckaineer, post: 129501656, member: 1428007"] If there is a BIG 12 network, Texas and its coaches will not only get exposure from those who can get the LHN, but from a national audience. Hmmmm. Wonder which audience would be better for their recruiting and for all sports? As for numbers, let's look at them again. The Big Ten and SEC networks have distributions in the mid 60% range of all pay subscribers. The BIG 12 has a smaller base footprint so probably won't get that many, but for purposes of this let's say they get distribution to 55% of pay subscribers. If they add UConn and CIncinnati, along with the existing cable base that's approx 10.33 million subscribers. If the BIG 12 network acquired a reasonable $1.00 per subscriber rate in its home territories, that is: $10.33 million per month (reports have stated the LHN already has from 8-12 million subscribers and the BIG 12 would be adding many more with all the states and some regions i.e.NYC, Pittsburgh, Maryland for example, involved). Take 55 million (total) subscribers and subtract out 10.33 (footprint)=44.67 million subscribers in non BIG 12 territories that receive the network. x$.20 per subscriber = $8.934 million per month from non-territory subscribers to the BIG 12 Network $8.934 million plus $10.33 million =$19.264 million per month, x 12 months =$231.168 million per year total revenue for a BIG 12 conference network. Network partners would likely take half of that-so divide that $231.168 million by 2=$115.584 million left to divide up among 12 members and the conference (13 shares). That is approximately $8.89 million PER SCHOOL PER YEAR plus a conference share of the same. Now, Texas is guaranteed $15 million per year. 15-8.89=$6.11 million that would need to be made up for a time to Texas. Divide that $6.11 million up among the other 11 members and the conference take and you get: $509,000 per member that would need to go back to Texas or be distributed to them first. You can imagine that the two new members might have to take a lower share than existing members to buy in, but even if it was all evenly split that means instead of i.e. Kansas State making $8.89 milliion per year from a conference network, they might make $8.381 million. That's going to be around $4 million more than they get now, and they'll still retain their radio/internet etc. rights which they can also sell. The SEC has to feed 14 members plus the conference office, and there would be expenses taken out of what all BIG 12 schools get so the final number in revenue is going to be very similar to what SEC schools get, but probably a bit higher depending on how many schools the BIG 12 adds.
