@Malikthemessiah @ShaneSparksBTN @OliverPierce157 @JustinJBasch You could have sat in a studio and been paid to do professional commentary

@Malikthemessiah @ShaneSparksBTN @OliverPierce157 @JustinJBasch I don’t believe that the BTN is restricted by universities to hire professional talent. .. I think they’re being cheap and not respecting our sport - you think this would fly for football or basketball ?

@Malikthemessiah @ShaneSparksBTN @OliverPierce157 @JustinJBasch You’re defending them like you work at corporate….. they need to spend their money and hire professionals for broadcasts to paying subscribers

@Malikthemessiah @ShaneSparksBTN @OliverPierce157 @JustinJBasch Put 1 professional on each broadcast - hire this talent locally or regionally… Is there commentary that is done from a studio while watching live?

@Malikthemessiah @ShaneSparksBTN @OliverPierce157 @JustinJBasch Disagree. People don’t want to be exploited for free or peanuts… again, $250-350mm .. and even so, I promise you I could create a list of willing and knowledgeable folks $20-30mm per month, Malik. $400k per week.

@Malikthemessiah @ShaneSparksBTN @OliverPierce157 @JustinJBasch To start, not what they did today. Nor should the face of their network be telling people to not tune in when they literally pay for the service. Who’s in charge over there? Someone’s getting paid to answer this question, or better yet getting ahead of it so it’s not asked.

@Malikthemessiah @ShaneSparksBTN @OliverPierce157 @JustinJBasch How much money do you think BTN pulls in yearly? .. if you guess between $250-350mm you’d be right…. thats $20-30mm per month. The Big Ten and Big Ten Network aren’t mom and pop operations.

@Malikthemessiah @ShaneSparksBTN @OliverPierce157 @JustinJBasch Student organizations dictate terms to the Big Ten Network?? Seems that BTN has a responsibility to put out a professional product the people that pay them.

@ShaneSparksBTN @OliverPierce157 @JustinJBasch People pay for this platform and it should be assumed the Big Ten Network would operate differently than a start up on a budget - especially given the climate of college sports being a professional league. Was there 1 paid professional on the broadcast?
