Is dumping ESPN+ out of the Disney Bundle in favor of HBO/Max the right play for maximizing ISU/Big XII viewing at this point?

Do we know yet if ESPN+ will still show any worthwhile (ISU) content this Fall and beyond?

I would imagine a lot of the non-con basketball and the women’s team will mostly be on +.

All non-revenues, a good number of MBB games and probably at least one football game are still going to be on ESPN+.

ESPN isn't going to sublicense so much that it hurts subscriptions and it sounds like the Peacock games are being sublicensed from the FOX package.

This whole thing was part of a settlement between Warner Bros/Discovery, ESPN, and the NBA.

TNT/TBS/Max got 13 football games and 15 men's basketball games and free use of NBA highlights, ESPN got Inside the NBA, and the NBA stopped getting sued by Warner Bros.

So basically 1 football game a week/basketball game a week will likely be on TNT or TBS, that’s actually a really good thing for the conference as those channels are included in every satellite package as well as YouTube tv, Hulu live and I believe sling which are the main channel streamers
