FTR, I'm hearing the new SEC (if A&M moves) teams will get $34 mil each/year for media rights compared to I believe $17 now
BigKat, where you getting that number from? I could definitely see an increase from $17 to $22/24, but $34 mil?!?
That would be outrageous for each school to be pulling in that kind of TV money.
Can't wait for the official announcement of A&M coming to the SEC. Let's do this! I'm all for the rich getting richer.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that there is zero chance we go to 13 teams...even for a year.

JP, I've heard it from a few trusted people and also Ag Websider owner David Sandhop tweeted it not long after I made that post. I hope I'm not his source!
That's a joke BTW, Sandhop has good connections. I think Luicci said the same. Not positive of the top of my head

I too have seen reports over 30 per.
The landscape has changed dramatically since the SEC deal with ESPN for 3rd tier rights was last inked in 08. Since the SEC's contract, the ACC, Big 10 and PAC 12 have all signed new deals. If the PAC12's deal (3 billion over 12 at roughly 21 per school) is any indication of how much the SEC is looking to profit off a renegotiation, it's plausible the 30 mil per number could be eclipsed.
