Just in case anyone's wondering why these schools are hopping around:
Football TV contracts of six major conferences
SEC
ESPN: 15 years, $2.25 billion through 2023-2024
CBS: 15 years, $825 million through 2023-2024
Big Ten
Big Ten Network: 25 years, $2.8 billion (projected) through 2031-32
ABC/ESPN: 10 years, $1 billion through 2016
Big 12
ABC/ESPN: Eight years, $480 million through 2015-16
Fox Sports Net: Four years, $78 million through 2011-12
ACC
ABC/ESPN: Seven years, $258 million through 2010-11
Pac-10

Fox Sports Net: Five years, $97 million through 2011-12
Big East

Note these are "football" numbers. Add in basketball (NCAA $$), and then repeat after me, "It is all about the student-athletes".
