They don't need to add much value to the football TV contracts, it's already a fairly huge number. You add considerable academic strength to the conference with the new schools (and yes, Miami fan, that book learning stuff is important). With football, you add strong teams in Nebraska, Mizzou and Pitt. With basketball, you add Mizzou (on the rise), and Pitt/Syracuse (national powers). Nebraska and Rutgers pretty much suck in basketball, but three out of five is pretty good.
