Late-night tipoffs bring in big money but stiff the little guy
Posted Feb 13, 2017
TV networks pay for the big-money items in college basketball. When funds are needed to pay an assistant coach $300,000, or to charter a jet, schools dip into their media rights funds. The fans of those basketball teams pay later. Much later. Duke at Virginia on Feb. 15 and Louisville at North Carolina a week later both tip off at 9 p.m. in the east.
