FORBES: Income per conference, I have some questions
Posted: Tue Jul 21, 2015 11:22 am
I have some questions about this FORBES article. I was under the impression the BE got 5MM per team. This information indicates otherwise. I had read the ACC got 22MM for their TV, again this indicates otherwise. I thought we made more than the AAC, not so according to this article. I had read the MWC made more money than any G5 conference. They did not and had Boise St. not gone to the access bowl they would have made less than C-USA. The A-10 was not listed and so either they make less than the MAC and SB (which is also not listed) or their contract is truly pathetic.
Generally speaking Forbes is very accurate on financial matters, sometimes less so on non-financial matters such as their college rankings. However the information here gives a different perspective to what I have read.
Any comments? I would appreciate hearing them especially as to our (BE) income.
