If you haven't been following Disney is selling it's TV assets including ABC and is looking for a partner to spin off ESPN.
Essentially cable has gone from 100 million subs to 50 million subs or lower. So if ESPN is paired with someone else(google or apple most likely) and then sold direct to consumer it'll end up being 25 or 30 bucks month.
My point in all this is that in all this with everything going to espn/abc in the SEC move we could see it be more expensive to watch OU sports and in rural areas it may be impossible. And if ESPN goes bankrupt down the line the SEC stuff would pretty much be back on the market.
The next couple years will be interesting to say the least.
