ΓÇ£I don’t know how the first five years of our conference could have gone any better, with across-the-board success, particularly in football,ΓÇ¥ White said. ΓÇ£Whether you look at television ratings, competitive success, New Year’s Day bowl wins, we’ve way outperformed.

ΓÇ£I think our current deal is way undervalued, and everybody understands that. We’re all really confident we’ll get a much more significant television deal that puts us on par with where we should be, with the Power 6 conferences.ΓÇ¥

I hope he's right. Would be nice to have some more money.

I want some of what he is smoking.........

Hard to imagine a P5 like TV deal when 85% of the stadiums in the conference are empty most games

It shows that most of our fans are home watching tv. We should get even more because of that.

We'd be lucky to get 10% of the P5 money

I thought we already were getting about 10%.

P5 a little under $30M, SMU a little under $3M.

that's pretty much what I was saying. Big 12 paid out 34.3 Million per team last year and they were behind SEC and Big 10.
