So a couple of questions for those more informed/intelligent than I.

If the SEC ends up not playing at all how will that affect the ESPN TV contracts? Will they still have to pay out some of that money or does it basically null and void the commitment for this year?

Second question, Have we (Mississippi State University) been putting any of that money back towards a rainy day fund or has it just been "go and blow". I don't know if anyone will have a concrete answer on that but I was curious. Do we use any of that money for coaches contracts etc? I guess the easier question would be- what does that money go towards? Travel/new facilities/coaches contracts etc.?

If we rely on that money every year to cover costs and suddenly that money isn't coming in will this end up affecting us more so than say UGA or Alabama? Since their donation pool is much deeper than ours I don't see how this wouldn't affect us more long term.
