Partially true. There is more inventory out there but there is also incremental mouths to feed on the margin. If the adds don't generate more revenue (or the worst situation: they actually take).....then there's no point. The Big 12 - Fox actually - determined Louisville was a net taker. They determined WVU was net neutral. So imagine the surprise when the Big 12 schools wanted Louisville but got WVU. Miraclulous, I tell ya!
