9% of TV subscribers are likely to cut the cord this year (it is very tempting, I watch almost no cable TV).  Some will pick ESPN over the top, but many won't.  I can almost guarantee that the next round of TV contracts will not be as lucrative as the last one.  This will hurt a lot of schools, but especially those that are carying a lot of debt and were expecting the rising tide of TV contracts to bail them out of it.

Does anyone remember (or know how to easily find out) when each of the Power 5 contracts are set to expire? The writing may be on the wall now, but I wonder if it'll be worse to expire in half a decade than right now, where the objective metrics are still pretty positive?
