Anyone that thinks equally sharing television revenue makes all things even is living in la la land.

I believe he was saying with the players, not the SEC schools. The SEC always has equal revenue sharing within the conference contracts I believe.

I was referring more to equally sharing revenue schools generate outside their conference media contracts. It isn’t even close to equal.

No way Vanderbilt generates the same revenue from home game ticket sales/concessions that A&M does even if both are sell outs.

That never has been equal, never will be and shouldn’t ever be. That would be true socialism. Right now we have quasi socialism for the most part with equal share media revenue distributions…unless a team is a newbie to a conference and gets a reduced share or nothing like SMU.

Yep. Revenue has never been equal. Media, playoff and bowl revenues are often shared equally.. But home game ticket sales, concession, merchandise, donor revenue damn sure hasn’t been and never will be. So expecting things to be totally equitable is insane.
