Message: [QUOTE="SU2NASA, post: 201402, member: 800"] As the Big East keeps adding more and more dreck, the addage their sticking to is that the next TV deal is going to be this massive windfall. So now you have 12 mouths to feed in football, and what kind of value have you added? Temple, Houston, SMU, San Diego State, Memphis? These five schools can't bring enough revenue to balance out the additional mouths. The league itself may get a big increase, but now you have to gain 50% more revenue on the football side just to stay at the level you're at now. Yeah, that's not going to happen with those four schools that bring nothing as far as TV sets. There's a reason they were in ConferenceUSA and the MAC until now and those leagues have little value. All you've done is watered down an already terrible product, losing arguably your three most valuable programs with a fourth with its bags packed. [/QUOTE]
