Awful Announcing with a list of potential replacements for Jim Delany - Transic_nyc - 04-23-2019 12:08 AM Quote:As per Michael Smith of Sports Business Journal, the conference and search firm Korn Ferry have compiled an initial list of nine candidates who might be a fit for the job. And perhaps unsurprisingly considering how much of a role television rights and league networks play for NCAA conferences these days, several of the candidates involved have significant media backgrounds. https://awfulannouncing.com/ncaa/three-of-nine-candidates-for-big-ten-commissioner-have-media-backgrounds.html RE: Awful Announcing with a list of potential replacements for Jim Delany - goofus - 04-24-2019 01:05 PM I guess its official. The Big Ten now is considered a TV network, not an athletic conference. Actually somehow I still think its going to end up being the NW AD, Jim Phillips.

The Big Ten now is considered a TV network, not an athletic conference. If you think about it, the future of the conferences' revenue is in finding ways to get their product to the masses for a fee. Streaming apps, media companies, tech companies (like Amazon), whoever is willing to provide the avenue and the $$$. With that in mind, it makes some sense to hire someone who's expertise is in that field. |
