The Illinois athletic department and other Big Ten members will share significantly more revenue from the conference this year, thanks largely to the success of the Big Ten Network.
The conference will pay Illinois a record $22.6 million, with $7.9 million coming from the network, according to figures provided by the university. That's a 21 percent increase over last year's $6.5 million share from the BTN.
