Ok

Maybe they can get the Saudi's to back the Big East

I remember when putting sponsor patches on professional uniforms was going to ruin sports...

[The Sultan]

The "Allstate 12 Conference" will have 16 teams in ten states.

College sports.

Big Beef, brought to you by Arby's

New year.
Same crap.
You'll die
No one will remember you or anything you ever loved

Eat arbys

"Creighton has amazing fans, they got a great program, but they do have some big ol' women down in Omaha."

And they don't in Milwaukee?

The beer and brat capital of the known universe?

You don't watch NBA on TNT

Know all about San Antonio's big women and Galveston's dirty water!

Reminds me of a verse from a song written by Chicago DJ Jonathon Brandmeier

We drive across your border
Pick up women big and heavy
And watch the men with foreheads
Like the bumpers on a Chevy

A mediocre retail chain spends money it can't afford to be the title sponsor of the Big Lots East.

Billy Joel sponsors the new Big Shot East.

Wendy's becomes the sponsor of the Biggie Size East.

A group of rappers get together to sponsor our conference, renaming it the Notorious B.I.G. East.

I think they should do this even without any sponsorship.

[MU82]

Yeah, I have to admit I chuckled as I was typing that.

If Anonymous Eagle is even close to accurate with $10 million per school, per year, that would be an incredible accomplishment by the conference.

Game changer. I think that is on par with some of the speculated value of BB in the B12 and SEC contracts.

I guess we don't need Georgetown to be good to get more TV money.

Stay down there with DePaul, you elitist dbags.

[Viper]

TNT would be great if we can keep their current NBA announcers like BA and Spiros, as well as turn the "Inside the NBA" team into "Inside the Big East."

BA is good. Lives in the Mke 'burbs (Hartland, I believe). Calls tv Brewers when not doing national stuff.

If you don't like Georgetown, find seven presidents and vote them out.

I can hear Clara Peller in the Wendy's ad on Selection Sunday "Where's the Big East?"

why? Two extra conference wins is a positive thing.

[GoldenWarrior11]

I predict $9-$12 million annually per member.  I'll go with eight years total. 

[Shooter McGavin]

I have nothing against Georgetown.  Love their brand and hope they rebound as a power in the conference.  Would never be a bad thing.  IMO, their return to prominence would be insurance against UConn leaving at some point. 

[The Sultan]

Y'all are too worried about "brands." Just field competitive basketball programs and it doesn't matter who they are.

100% but if you have both it can't hurt and only help.

The Big East is set to unveil new six-year media-rights agreements with Fox Sports, NBC Sports and TNT Sports, per sources

Longtime partner CBS and the conference could not find a path to a 4th package.


"The Big East is on the cusp of formally signing a new set of six-year media rights pacts as soon as this week with Fox, NBC and TNT that will begin with the 2025-26 school year (taking it through the 2031-32 term), sources tell SBJ. Financial terms were still being finalized at presstime, but sources noted the conference will see a significant rights fee uptick."
