ACC is on the upswing in both football and basketball, and the teams they have recently added put them at par, if not above the Big 12 in terms of overall conference quality in basketball and football.

Why would Big East deserve that money without the schools?

Hopefully we join the Catholic 7 in basketball and find a decent home outside of the Big Least for football we deserve better (Nancy Zampesse )

Seems content matter almost as much as what sport is televised. Good thing about Catholic 7 is there can be some intense rivalries which will draw national interest. Plyus they may keep ties in basketball to some of the oridinal Big East like Pitt and “Cuse.

This really got them nothing.

So yes, if this is correct the non-FB schools will make more than the FB schools.
