Disney Fox Deal impact on the Big East

[TheGym]

I did not see this posted anywhere and it is a bit of old news but Disney is making a move to buy Fox.  If discussed previously, my apologies.  The deal will give Disney control over the large majority of college sports content (and MLB as they will control the regional sports networks).  It will be interesting to see what impact this has on the Big East at the end of the TV deal.  I think it will further the dominance by the power five conferences.

There is about eight years left on the Fox/Big East deal but I think it potentially could hurt the money paid to re-up the deal.  Could be bad of MU basketball

Never mind FS1 is not part of the deal

The impact of the current deal is there will be game no longer be games on FSN. Those games will be pushed to FS2. Also,we are in the final year of the 5 year deal with CBSSN. I would think CBSSN will want another deal for their network.
