I have no clue whatsoever about how much it costs to produce a game or how much BYU could shave off of it.

Working with BYU has to be very interesting for ESPN since it's their contract

Sometimes TNT thinks this board at least certain posters overvalue the BYU brand

Well no. He was paid $100 to say it by an anonymous board member

That's why they're called fans. Fans are emotional, goes for all teams.

Except it isn't a clean test case since BYU covers the costs of production...

True, but they could account for that easily I would assume

Gustav

Also, BYU's contract was written before we started scheduling well. So our

Unless they signed the deal with the intent to chase certain types of games

You would also have to consider BYU's lack of leverage at the time

i worry we'll have less leverage in the market that seems to be emerging.

Conferences mitigate some of the risk
