From what she inferred, it does not seem like the BE and Fox have had much discussion about the TV deal.

If Pitino and Johnnies come out of the. Ox strong in year one, that will have a very positive impact on TV deal

The big 10 has approximately 25% of its league games on Peacock this year. I don't like it, but streaming is where the money is going. It will be interesting to see what the BE does.

I'm fine with streaming as long as it's all in one spot. I just don't want to have to subscribe to three different platforms just to watch MU games.

My take is that I'd be fine with paying $5 a game to watch every MU game.  Streaming preferred since I don't have to worry about where I am to watch it.  Phone if I have to.

If you're watching live, there will be commercial breaks regardless, so might as well.

Yeah that'd be fine.  I just don't want to have to chase the programming with five different channels or streaming services.

In regards to expansion there is no one of interest currently if I read that correctly.
