ESPN can threaten to go all-in (sorry) as Beth Mowins as the voice of the SEC. They have unimaginable leverage.




Not really. If the SEC decides not to put Out and Texas sports on ESPN.

That wasn't part of the deal when they signed.

Don’t think it works like this. Once they are designated SEC, ESPN owns their media rights. They will increase the contract pro rata, just not pay a premium for higher visibility.
