I don't like the way I wrote Thursday's blog relating to my radio conversation with MSU athletic director Mark Hollis. He is not concerned about the future of the Big Ten Network regarding its existence. Like every other Big Ten school official, he is concerned about fans being satisfied that they can see games which they have been used to watching in previous years. All of the schools are rooting for the Big Ten Network to solve its issues with cable companies so that all of the MSU teams as well as others in the conference will get maximum TV exposure and fan satisfaction. MSU officials are indeed, however, very supportive of the Big Ten Network's mission.
