I'll be intrigued seeing how this new BigEast plays out.
Or as some call the 7 Catholic founding schools, The Big Priest. My Big Easter never caught on.
There could be a potental offer of $500 million over 12 years from Fox.
By comparison the current BigEast media agreement with Espn pays the basketball schools about $2 million a year. Or the A-10 which reportedly makes under $400k per year.
Fox will be moving it's programming from the Speed Channel to Fuel TV. Then rebranding the Speed Channel as Fox Sports 1, later this year.
