SEC made record $455.8 million last year

[psu00]

SEC made record $455.8 million last year. Each SEC school will receive $31.2 million- (up $10 million per school from last year).

The Big 12 supposedly made "north of $250 million" to distribute to its schools in comparison.

The latest Big ten number (from 2013-14) was $338.9 million.

Big 10 expansion based on cable boxes working out?

SEC deal is negotiated most recently so yeah, it's going to be biggest. B1G first tier TV deal (currently worth $100 million per year) are up for renewal in 2016-2017. Although it may not be a most recent assessment, this article from last spring projects B1G revenues could climb north of 45 million per school with new rights negotiated.

That's a lot of money to further their priority academic mission.

$45 million per big ten school would be a deal worth around $650 million (approx). Don't see that happening in negotiations this year or next year considering the SEC just got $455.8 million.

Read the article. They are comparing SEC 2014 - 2015 data to BIG 2013 - 2014 data. Not quite a fair comparison but what would you expect from ESPN regarding the SEC.

Anyone have the actual big ten $ values from 2014-15?

I think you missed the point if your goal was to slam the B1G and its TV revenues. The full fruits of those moves in expansion will not be realized until the TV rights are renegotiated and signed in another year or two.

Consider what B1G schools currently make on a deal that's nearly a decade old. Given what the SEC deal is, Delaney basically has a starting point, and the conference won't be taking a penny less.

I'm not slamming any deal. Just saw the article today on the SEC money and posted it for discussion.

Very aware that the big ten renegotiates in the next 1.5 years or so. I guess we will see if they reach $45 million per school.

When the B1G renegotiates the TV deal, who will delany give Penn State's money too? Just Tosu and um or will he distribute it evenly among the other 13 schools?

 

[lionlurker]

I think it's all targeted to UM this time around, since tOSU was given that one victory against us last year.

Exhibit Number One proving propaganda works. Now the reality.

1.) Comparing apples to apples, SEC distributed $309 million to SEC schools in FY 2013/2014 while Big Ten distributed $338.9 million to Big Ten schools during the same period. Big Ten 2014/15 numbers not yet publically available.

2.) Big Ten is working off contract that started in 2007 while SEC is working off contract that began with an extension in 2014. The Big Ten is/will be negotiating the last major rights contract this decade. Basically, an open bid with FOX begging for additional major sports content against Disney/ABC/ESPN not wanting to lose the Number 1,3,4,8,12,15, and 19 DMAs (Designated Market Areas) in the United States of America.

3.) SEC increases due to increased playoff money (which will increase B1G distributions also), and those "cable boxes" you're making so much fun of (addition of SEC Network Revenues).

Not quite. The B1G distributed $318,680,149 to the member institutions for fiscal 2013/14. PSU received $24,775,742 which did not include $2,752,413 of bowl revenue that (except for Nebraska), all the other conference members received. Nebraska received a total payout of just $16,455,629 composed of TV rights fees of $16,034,000 and NCAA supplemental revenue of $401,629. Nebraska's TV rights payout was $3.9M less than each of the other conference members and in addition to receiving no payout for Bowl games, it also received no payout for the NCAA BB fund, NCAA Broad based fund, B1G Championship FB game, B1G BB tournament, and the NCAA royalty tribunal.

My mistake. The $338.9 million was TOTAL revenue in FY 2014. Even so, the $318 million B1G distribution still out paced the $309 million SEC distribution last year (2013/14). And the B1G $338.9 million total revenue figure outpaced the SEC's $325.9 million total revenue figure in FY 2014.

The 2015 numbers ESPN posted for the SEC are not apples to apples numbers.

No problem. The Conference takes a cut of certain revenue streams to help fund operations. It takes between 3.5 - 4% of TV and Bowl revenue depending on existing needs. For 2014 the members were assessed a total of $10.7M from TV and a total of $1.9M from bowl revenues. It also assessed the members a total of $2.4M for debt retirement on the new building and a total of $1.02M in annual membership dues.

At the end of 2014 the conference had amassed a boatload of cash ($57M) of which $31M was held in BTN Holdings LLC. It's pretty evident that the cash was going to be drawn down for payments to RU and MD in 2015 and beyond.
