Now that's getting intriguing. Sports are arguably the biggest thing keeping people on cable. I'm no millenial, but I ditched cable years ago, and sports are one of the things I miss. I wind up listening to games on the radio, because the cable packages have become ridiculous. Add the Big Ten Network to that list, and it would be quite a package. I don't know that I would want this all year, I'd probably drop it after basketball season, and pick it up again for football season. If this included ESPN3, I'd be highly tempted.
I have the Fire TV box, but if I got this package, I'd be tempted to buy a Stick just to make this portable. Then I could bring my Stick to a friend's house to watch the game.
Here's another thing that could be an opportunity: Most colleges have a package where you can watch games online. Mostly it is for games that aren't covered by cable channels, such as the "minor" sports. You can hook your computer up to the TV set, but that is a pain. If instead, you could just have a Fire TV app, that would make these packages much more enticing.
