[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 949292, member: 2426"] The bigger problem for TV revenue as it relates to sports is the current business model for sports TV. ESPN still gets the majority of their revenue from subscriptions instead of advertising. The majority of people who subscribe do not watch ESPN ever. If cord cutting hit 100%, ESPN would have to more than double their advertising revenue just to get to the point they are at now which isn't good financially. I don't know what kind of business model will be in place for football revenue in 10 years, but it was foreseeable 15 years ago that the current model was not sustainable. The kind of things that I could see going forward are media deals, plus Sunday Ticket like subscriptions to be able to watch all of the SEC or Big10 games. Now that NIL is in place and employment of athletes is a distinct possibility, I could see at least the SEC doing deals with someone like DraftKings and incorporating gambling into the norm for the conference and conference broadcasts. If they want more revenue, or even to maintain the existing revenue, they will have to accept that cable/sat subscriptions are not going to continue and that ad revenue will not make up the difference.
