[QUOTE="topdecktiger, post: 129503369, member: 1459051"] No, I'm not wrong at all. You can't simply roll over the $2 million from Tier 3, and then count the Big 12 network on top of it. When you add the Tier 3 rights to the Big 12 network, then the money comes strictly from the number of subscribers. You can't say, "$2 million + plus subscription fees."
