How much money are they losing in 1 year not being able to play

Hard to know for sure. A lot.

But the number is irrelevant. If they play they will have no ticket sales, and they lose their media revenue either way. Playing only adds costs without a way to mitigate them.

There isn't a snowball's chance in hell that Nebraska is going back to the Big 12. They aren't going to sacrifice 8 figures worth of revenue every single year because of one year of being unable to play. Within 3 years they'll more than make up the difference.

Don’t shoot the messenger.

There really isn't. Their media rights are tied up in the Big 10's contract. Perhaps the Big 12 would be benevolent and cut Nebraska into their deal, but that's doubtful because it would require splitting the pie without adding to it.

That would require a lot of mitigation in a short amount of time

I think the only way the Big 10's tv contract is enforceable would be for the schools to still be paid even if games are never played.

There are still some hurt feelings on both sides from Nebraska leaving for the Big 10 and the Longhorn network. I mentioned this somewhere else, but for the Big 12 to allow Nebraska back, the Huskers will be spit shining Texas boots first. Just don't see it happening.

But if you eliminate the MD/PHD degrees from Facebook very few folks on Volnation will be able to comment, including you.

As it SHOULD be when it comes to the Coronavirus. I only comment after I have researched the True Experts such as Dr. Risch. Opinions from the uninformed don't matter ; except in Sports.

Nebraska and Iowa should just ask to join the Big 12 for 2020; IF they want to play and IF the Big 12 does in fact follow through. I do NOT understand all the Hysteria over a Virus that has been proven over and over to be curable. NOW, all of you Virology Degree'd Scientists and Front Line Doctors line up and sound off; but be SURE you are a qualified level above Dr Harvey Risch; MD, PHD---YALE Medical School. Others need not apply.

As Paul Harvey would say, "Now the rest of the story":

Risch is an oncologic epidemiologist (not a virologist) whose opinion about HCQ is at odds with all other Yale epidemiologists including the chairman of the department.

Fox and Disney aren't going to pay for no games. There is no way the contract requires them to do so.

The better question, perhaps, might be if the Big Ten would owe Fox and Disney money for failing to provide programming inventory despite MLS/WNBA/NBA/MLB/NHL and (presumably) the NFL having figured things out since March. I get that this is a pandemic and the NCAA is in a weird place since you can't force student-athletes into a bubble without giving up the gun, but that's not exactly Fox/Disney's problem.

That reply was not put out from the Chair, and was not crafted by an epidemiologist, rather the Deans office (big difference). The Chair is a Dr. Albert Ko (MD), whereas the person responsible for putting out that statement is the dean of the college and is actually a Pediatrician by trade.

I cannot imagine that's an issue that the networks want to push.
