I think they should sign with another network that takes them east.


ESPN is only going to show them late night on Saturday for football, and for basketball because of commitments to other eastern conferences. Fox looks like it's doubling down on the Big Ten and Big XII.

I liked the idea of looking at NBC or Turner Sports for Weekend football games like what the SEC does with CBS. They would then keep a partial agreement for games with ESPN too. They need to have whomever they partner with take the PAC12 network off their hands and get it national distribution. I'm not sure they need schools in the east as much as airtime in the east and distribution for those channels.
