Very cool. I would like to see the P5 conferences take less money if they could control the schedules more than they do now. Or, at least consider that as part of these negotiations. Then we don't have to have 2:30 games in Texas during September.
Looks like we're gonna renovate Kyle Field every 9 years with plenty left over.TPS_Report said:Going from $55 mil per year to $300 mill would mean an increase of $16 million per year per team! This 100-year decision keeps getting better!Madman said:

It's good to be the king.

Well except when teams refuse games because of sip tv.
But you're forgetting the 8 years that the LHN has been broadcasting, giving them $15 million each year, so it will take Vanderbilt 120 years to catch up to the mighty longhorns...AgDotCom said:Wait a minute. If this happens does it mean that based on this $16 million increase by itself, Vanderbilt would be paid $1 million more per year that the $15 million / year the LHN pays to Texas?TPS_Report said:Going from $55 mil per year to $300 mill would mean an increase of $16 million per year per team!

Surely that can't be true. Right?

All this money is 'Grant of Rights' free. No need to sign a Grant of Rights because the SEC is good for it.
On-the-otherhand, past and any future bdf media deals have and will require a Grant of Rights commitment. Haha

The article is just a list of predictions for sports media. The CBS deal runs through the 2023 season. The new deal is going to be a lot more expensive. The projected numbers look right. The only question is who will be the lucky bidder. I bet that CBS makes more from the SEC than the NFL. Last time the deal was up the SEC took less money to stay with CBS in order to preserve the exclusive window at 3:30 on broadcast TV.
CBS recently shelled out for the Champions League, so someone will be backing up the Brinks truck to the SEC office.

In the history of TexAgs, never has a truer statement been made.

Reports saying a deal worth more than 6X the previous $55M is close to being done. That CBS bid $300M but ABC/ESPN bid more. CBS walking away. Original report may have had just a bit of insider info.
Quote:
CBS will walk away from the SEC when its contract ends after the 2023 football season, and all indications are that the package will move to ESPN/ABC. CBS decided to exit the negotiations for college football's most-watched TV package after making an aggressive bid in the neighborhood of $300 million per season -- a massive increase from the $55 million it currently pays annually. CBS Sports execs decided that it made more sense to invest the money they would have paid the SEC into other sports. When contacted this afternoon by SBJ, CBS Sports PR emailed the following statement: "We made a strong and responsible bid. While we've had success with the SEC on CBS, we are instead choosing to aggressively focus on other important strategic priorities moving forward."
Multiple sources said ESPN/ABC is in the final stages of negotiating a deal that is expected to pay more than six times the $55 million per year fee that CBS currently pays, sources said. Fox Sports execs still are planning to make an official bid presentation at SEC HQ in Birmingham next month. But sources say ESPN's negotiations are in the final stages. ESPN and Fox Sports would not comment

If only we had stayed in the Little 10!
Less money, less attention and the thrill of 11am games vs teams literally nobody gives a **** about
Once again the joke is on us!

I bet this deal winds up being north of $400MM and maybe as high as $500MM.
That's nearly as good as our own little piss ant channel... right?

The numbers are great, but I'm not sure how long I'd like this deal to be. IMO, the future may be cutting out middlemen and going conference network direct to consumers / viewers.
The NFL might already be slowly boiling the frog, we'll see. Note how they've gone from Thursday only on NFL Network to Saturday games also beginning in 2014. Three games yesterday all on NFL network.. Of course the NFL realizes content is king and you can't have good content unless you have a great league which means no one team trying to run the show.

Yes, quite a few years left to run with CBS and no mention of how long this new deal with ABC/ESPN will run for (term). I understand you need to plan ahead and make decisions for the future. I'm surprised this is being worked so soon but what do I know? Information is trickling out. Nothing concrete yet, in my opinion. I do love these media conference threads though. I do. Haha
Conference realignment is another great topic.
The bdf and their situation will be interesting. Their media contract runs until 2025 (I believe?). You can bet a Grant of Rights will be required before anything gets done with the bdf. The sip tv channel runs until 2030 so there is that, too.

The new TV deal will pay all of our yearly athletic bond debt payments. That means all of our current facilities are paid for with a few million left over for future projects. Indoor Tennis and Blue Bell Park are next

300 million more than the current contract
15 shares divided up means $20,000,000 more per a year
So what will talkative being us up to? 60,000.000 a year?
63.7 Million per team, assuming zero other increases (which won't happen).
Look for the per team number to be $65m.
Holy hell, absolutely unbelievable. Less than 10 years ago we received $8m.
Remember back in 2008 when we were promised Beebe bucks to stay in the BDF?
We owe Loftin a statue outside of Kyle Field.

Let that sink in.
Maybe we should start putting the suicide prevention number in our signatures for the resident sips?
It's almost unfair.
Those dip-sh-ts called us greedy for wanting 20 mil to stay. We will be getting $65 million now.Seor Chang said:

Perhaps we should erect one to Deloss Dodds as well.Seor Chang said:

Ol' Del...
Vanderbilt will make more from media rights than the sips. Vanderbilt.
Great coaches will never be poached from the SEC now... that was predicted right here on this very board 8 or 9 years ago (by Bonfire96 I believe). This is a complete and total game changer.
Whatever problems SEC schools may have, money ain't gonna be one of them.
