Part 1/7:
The Big 12's Game-Changing Move from ESPN to TNT
After enduring years of poor coverage and perceived bias from ESPN, the Big 12 Conference is taking a bold step forward by signing a significant broadcasting contract with TNT. This transition raises numerous questions: what does this mean for the future of the Big 12? Could this potentially signal the end of ESPN as we know it in college sports?
A New Era for Big 12 Broadcasting
The Big 12's partnership with TNT marks a major shift in the landscape of college sports broadcasting. The new agreement allows for 13 football games to air on Warner Brothers channels, including TNT and TBS, moving away from the ESPN streaming platform. Additionally, ESPN will sublicense 15 men's basketball games to TNT or TBS.
