Currently expansion is driven by carriage fees. Get any school in a populous state to force tier 1 rates. However, if in 10 years most of the population doesn't have cable and streams content, does that affect desirable expansion targets? Is a massive school like UCF more valuable than UVA?
Maybe it will. Maybe by then the more serious fans you have willing to pay for the service the more valuable your program is.
But who knows? Video game streaming might be the thing by then.

yea it's already the thing for those who want to use it.
as for a school like UCF being more valuable than a UVA, really depends, how many students/alums actually want to watch the game.
I've contended that the PAC is "overvalued" because even though the left coast has a large pop. it's mostly frisbee flippin, hemp wearing tofu heads out there that don't care the least about football.
It's going to be interesting to see how it plays out, but the SECN proved that SEC fans are the most rabid/loyal football fans on the planet, so we don't have to worry.
