Does anyone know how much the start-up costs for the SEC network impacted the per school distribution this year? As I recall, that was a headwind as to how much each school was going to get initially. Regardless, the $31 million/school distribution was a pleasant surprise. I'm sure that it will go higher next year with normal market conditions. I'm wondering that with the start-up headwind behind us, whether next year's boost will be pleasantly more again.The long-term positive impact that the SEC Network will have on Carolina athletics cannot be emphasized too much. It kind of makes me wish I was young enough to be back in the "rat race" of "work" again...but not really. LOL
Start-up Costs for SEC Network
- Thread starter gamecock stock
- Start date
We put in a state of the art TV studio for in house production and for ESPN to use when here. We also added extra camera wells and cameras at all the Olympic sports venues. I seem to recall a 3-5 million price tag.
We are ahead of most schools in the league and because of this we had many more events televised.
If you watched any soccer you saw our stadium is so much better geared for TV coverage
