And “will not be the top ones from the conference.”

So there’s a few more details. The original WSJ report said TNT and Max, still no word if that means simulcast on Max as an option or whether that means Max exclusive games. Also not sure if this is coming from the pool of games that are normally stuck on ESPN+ or ones that are normally on cable.

Edit: the Yahoo article adds that they will be simulcast on Max, and that it came from ESPN+ inventory. Great trade!

In one of the landmark trades in sports media history, officially announced Monday, Pitaro has brought in Barkley and friends in exchange for 13 Big 12 football games and 15 Big 12 basketball games. No money is being exchanged between the sides, according to sources briefed on the deal. The agreement is for six seasons.

TNT Sports needs the inventory, though the games will not be the top ones from the conference.
