Smith said he even expects the Big Ten to someday expand full membership again, maybe after five or six years.
“There will be a point,” he said, “when the business model changes again, frankly, because of media platforms.”
Already, this is no longer a Big Ten familiar to Ohio State fans.
“I understand the apprehension,” Smith said, “but at the end of the day, our responsibility in the conference is our needs from a business perspective. So for the financial stability of our conference and strength of our conference, it’s the best deal in the country.”
