Value of the network has nothing to do with income generated and distributed to members which has been averaging less than 9 million per year. No doubt it will continue to increase some per contract which dictates how much they get. The remainder will be pocketed by ESPN or whoever is broadcasting.
The one element not included in the network is the official athletic department site for the University of Nebraska, huskers.com. Nebraska, in its first year with the Big Ten, is aligned with NeuLion for management of its website. CBSSports.com intends to pursue those rights and bring the school fully into the network once the current deal expires in 2013.
Before the deal, CBSSports.com had been managing the official sites for nine Big Ten schools, and then aligned with Ohio State and Minnesota in June to get up to 11.
"We've now got a situation where we can really leverage the network's and the schools' audiences and offer much more choice and much more value to both fans and advertisers," said Rob Schupler, CBSSports.com College Network senior vice president of university sales and marketing.
The Big Ten Network is 51 percent owned by Fox, but officials for the channel said there was no issue with striking such a deep partnership with a division of rival outlet CBS. Fox Sports Interactive Media is not heavily involved in the hosting and management of college athletic websites.
"This is about doing what's best for the network, and everybody involved is on board with that," said Big Ten Network President Mark Silverman

Well they are not in liquidation so the 1.4 billion number is meaningless. Net operating income will determine how much teams actually get.
OUCH!!!!!!!!!The Big Ten downplayed Nebraska's ouster from the Association of American Universities this spring, and the league continued to roll out the red carpet for Big Red during its transition to the league.
There wasn't much the league could do, as Nebraska was just two months away from officially entering the Big Ten.
But the importance of AAU membership didn't waver for the Big Ten's academic leaders. It's very fair to ask whether the Big Ten would have admitted Nebraska had the school lost its AAU membership before June 2010.
Now there's this: according to a Lincoln Journal Star report, two Big Ten schools apparently didn't think Nebraska belonged in the AAU.
Nebraska failed to garner the 21 votes it needed last April to remain in the Association of American Universities, a confederation of more than 60 top research institutions that collectively nets more than half of all federal research funds and awards more than half of the doctoral degrees in the nation. It was confirmed that UNL fell three votes short.
