This is right. But the MWC deal is basically a deal with BSU.

At least thats how I understood it. I thought ESPN signed a deal with the MWC to be their secondary rights holder, but also they would get ALL of BSU's home games. The deal says they have to televise a minimum of THREE games on either ESPN, ESPN2, or ABC.

It's pretty much a BSU/ESPN deal through the MWC.

It's more TV value than strict media markets

BYU is already too far west...no way in heck WVU and others would vote for this

The fact that WVU has any sway at all in anything still blows my mind

The fact that anyone wants to live in West Virginia blows mine.

Personally, I feel the far more likely scenario:

This won't happen

It's not true until Tuxedo Yoda and True True confirm the Rumor.

I would love SDSU as the other addition to the B12 so we can still have a So Cal

Gotta say I'm impressed BYUTv is handling nearly the entire WCC tourney

BYUtv might be a huge bargaining chip with the B12.

or it could be an equally big barrier...

Your right it could be a barrier However, conferences and schools want exposure

Actually, a decent fit, especially if Football Only

Do you have a link to that because I don't believe that is correct at all

ManicBlue

The link is in the post

thanks ... so it's a small deal then

ManicBlue

Except when you start to consider what the MWC pays out

yes definitely

IMO, Notre Dame is a no go.

I don't believe the 12 team rate is currently true

So, football only could make sense? But only if CCG game is needed...

Not impossible, but you have to think unlikely

We need to impress in '15 to get a shot at any P5, but tuff schedule=opportunity

It is not W-L... It is $$$ and can BYU bring it with the next best candidate

BYU - SDSU makes more sense than your 2 combos.

This seems legit!!

At the end of the day it will be a lot more dollars and a few cents

That is part of WVU's problem

How many years in a row does the B12 need to be shut out

Reasonable1

3/6/15 2:19pm

If it happens in 2015-16, look for a quick response through expansion

Cougarpride

Maybe but Baylor still has a pathetic OOC schedule

ManicBlue

SDSU makes sense for any conference for SoCal exposure/bowls.
