| 0:00.0 | Okay, so I just want to give you guys an interesting update, just something to put on the radar, and it involves greed and the Big Ten, so we've got to ask Rico this. |
| 0:11.1 | So in an interview yesterday, this is by way of USA Today, I want to read the tea leaves here. |
| 0:19.4 | Ohio State University President Ted Carter left open translation. |
| 0:25.6 | He's telling you what's going to happen. |
| 0:27.4 | The possibility of changes to the Big Ten Conference schools revenue sharing arrangements. |
| 0:33.5 | Oh, dear God. |
| 0:35.7 | Carter said during the interview, Ohio State had around $25 million in athletics revenue for the fiscal year of 2425. |

| 1:40.2 | So that's the way our deals are set up. That's how it's set up for now. |
| 1:46.9 | Carter was then asked what he thinks about where it goes in four or five years. |
| 1:50.9 | We don't have any answers. |
| 1:52.8 | I'll just say there's only a couple of schools that really represent the biggest brands in the Big Ten. |
| 1:58.4 | And you see it by viewership. |
| 2:00.8 | I mean, look at what we just went through with the Texas game. |
