Big Ten Discussing $2 Billion Private Capital Deal

[Archbold44]

Remember... the ACC is throwing a trial balloon on unequal revenue sharing based on brands/success. Now this B1G deal is unequal sharing... OSU/PSU/Michigan are Tier 1... getting more of this $2.4B than everyone else. So that is the next step in the process.

It makes complete sense that Ohio State should not have a budget deficit because it takes $20M out of its own pocket to give to Rutgers. Kind of like the luxury tax in pro sports. The Yankees can do that... but Ohio has taxpayers. Almost a DUTY to make sure they are not giving up too much to some other state entity.

The Big Ten GOR runs until 2036.

This deal would extend it out ten more years.

If USC and Michigan want to leave, they still have to deal with the existing GOR.

Does the Big Ten have an exit fee? How much?

It seems weird to talk about these issues regarding the Big Ten.

(Not that any school is going to leave, but it is fun to see the cracks and unease in that conference)

Is the B1G GOR mightier than the ACC GOR

"What s Ohio St Waiting For?"

Briggs: Credit Michigan for standing up to Big Ten's reckless private capital deal. What's Ohio State waiting for?

Is Ohio State about to win the battle while Michigan takes the next Ten-Year War? Give it a few weeks, and we’ll find out. And, no, not on the football ...
