The conference received over $31.5 million in rights fees from FOX in 2015 and more than $32.8 million in 2016, according to tax records I obtained. Figures for 2017 were not available.

I'm just curious as to where the rest of the money went. Per Forbes' look at tax records:The conference received over $31.5 million in rights fees from FOX in 2015 and more than $32.8 million in 2016, according to tax records I obtained. Figures for 2017 were not available.
Yet the announced figure for the deal was $500 million over 10 years, or $50 million/year, or $5 million/team/year.
Did the rest of the money go to paying "leaving fees" as we split from the other teams, or is the contract back-loaded and we'll get more than $5 million/year in the later years?
