With regards to your assertion that Bradley basketball was making money for Comcast and WTVP, I wonder why they weren't clamoring for the rights to broadcast games in 2013 and 2014 if they were netting income from said broadcasts in previous seasons...
I have heard they were interested, but the lack of clamoring was not from their side.

Fair enough. I could see that as a possibility.
I think Nelligan's goal is probably to get the games on local network TV. If it's on Comcast, only about half of the people in the market would see it, and the last time WTVP aired games they were using their TVP World digital station that also had scarce penetration.
They have a TV deal in place (or being finalized) for the conference season. Unfortunately, they got a late start in getting their GM in place, so they haven't been able to accomplish everything that they wanted to do this year, but I think folks will notice a difference next year.
