You said:Boren actually said:He (Boren) said Big 12 schools are losing $4 million to $6 million per year because of the lack of a conference network.He didn't make any specification about Tier 3 rights, like you claimed. His point is clear. The conference is losing $4-6 million a year because they don't have a network. Well, if they are losing $4-6 million, then the payout can't be $8 million, because then they would be losing MORE than $4-6 million.The problem is not with your arithmetic. The problem is with your formula. You are assuming all the revenue goes to the schools. It doesn't. The Big 12 will not get $8 million from a network after expenses are factored in. That's illustrated by the payouts from both the Big Ten and SEC. And yes, it is perfectly reasonable to compare those two conferences. Your formula does not accurately predict what the Big Ten and SEC make BECAUSE YOU DON'T FACTOR IN FOR EXPENSES. The payouts in the Big Ten are known. The payouts in the SEC are known. They don't pay out as much as your formula predicts. Therefore, your formula is wrong. It's pretty simple.Oh by the way. Show me some evidence the Big Ten only got $.10 per subscriber in Philadelphia. I'm still waiting for that one.Oh another point. You are criticizing me for not knowing the distribution model for the Big Ten (which isn't true). Well, you have absolutely no idea what distribution mode the Big 12 will have. You don't even know what kind of network model the Big 12 will have. Even Boren's plan includes extra compensation to Texas, which would further skew the numbers for the rest of the league.</blockquote>
