Big ten tried to save the pac 12 in 2011


Aug 6, 2023, 10:25 PM

Jim Delany offered Larry Scott a scheduling deal where 12 games would be played between the conferences. In Jim’s mind this was stop the need for the big ten to expand as it would guarantee 6 marketable games to their inventory . Larry Scott couldn’t sell it to his ADs . Maryland and Rutgers came next . In 2019 it was reported the additional cable subs from the DC/Baltimore/NY/Jersey regions added $14million additional revenue to each big ten school from 2014-2017.

That was the longhorn Network disaster. I mean If you’re Texas you gotta take the ESPN deal but it was the death blow to the big 12 as it was known and I always wondered if it killed the pac 12 deal. Interesting interview with Jim Delany was in 1993 before the big 8 and SWC combined big ten had talks with A and M and Texas .
