Nice. I remember you telling me that a few weeks ago. This is big news for the conference.

So each school was getting 500K. Now with the new deal each school will get 2 million.

That is the way I understood it.

Wow that’s a big increase.

Wow that’s a big increase.

For sure.

That’s what? 10% of ULMOST’s budget?

Sounds and is good, but to put in perspective, B10 expecting $100M per school. Different ballgame all together.

A billion dollar payout to a solitary conference every single year?

If true, Louisiana should soon be demanding $6 million for a single road game.

3x what the conference pays

Good news for the schools but isn’t that still only a 3rd of what the AAC gets? I think it is 7 mil/school?

[Turbine]

Thinking of the payouts being for home games....

$333.3 thousand per home game for SBC schools.

$16.6 million per home game for Big 10 games.

It’s all the same money in terms of spending and bang for your buck.
