The SEC Network deal and the like in other conferences? Yes. Not the overall network contracts like ESPN, CBS etc. that’s in the billions and shared.

No, it isn't. The TV contracts are conference-specific and cover all home games played by conference teams. ESPN has individual contracts with the ACC, SEC, Big Ten, Pac 12 and Big 12. The ACC and SEC contracts include partial ownership of the ACC and SEC Networks. Fox has contracts with the Big Ten, Big 12 and Pac 12. The Big Ten contract with Fox includes Fox's 49% stake in the Big Ten Network. CBS has a contract with the ACC. Each conference retains 100% of the revenues from their respective contracts and distributes those dollars to the schools in their conferences.

Conferences that do not play have no standing to ask for any TV money from another conference.

The only "overall network contracts" in college sports are the ones for NCAA Postseason events. CBS and Turner pay the NCAA billions to cover the Men's basketball tournament. ESPN pays the NCAA for all of the other NCAA tournaments. Those revenues are distributed to the schools that participate in the Tournaments each year.

But the objective is to lose as little money as possible. If you bring other teams in, you can play more games at home, ha e more TV revenue and sella few more tickets, evern if only 30,000 thousand are allowed to attend games.

No 10 games in conference is enough. I don't think "helping b-10 liberal west coast, etc. is the way to go. Let them suffer the impact of no football/other sports and the same, if not more c-19 exposure for their athletes by not playing. We can have very exciting in conference sports without the outsiders.
