I think that portion of the article is poorly written article, probably to get the lead on the story.  Nobody knows the real numbers and ESPN must be involved if the GOR is being breached.  ESPN is not a party to the lawsuits and things people say without all the facts are to be take with a grain of salt.  Presently, the annual payout is $40MM+, it is difficult to imagine that ESPN will agree to less than $100MM when the last six years of the agreement are more than $240MM, especially when ESPN is not a part of the lawsuits and settlement.

The exit fee is presently north of $120MM, reducing that alone to less than $100MM is a big enough issue.

Regardless, this is a terrible deal, I hope SU votes against any and all unequal revenue sharing, especially based on ratings.  Even sucky FSU was placed on better networks when they should have been streamed on ACCN+ receiving ratings when others cannot get ratings because the ACCN and streaming are not mesured.
