Wait, the Utah-to-the-Pac-10 movement isn't being driven by academics?

Actually, if they stay at 10 teams they will each make 17m with Texas earning 25m. Plus their own Longhorn Network. Which could earn them substantially more.

A "Longhorn Network" would be a boon for recruiting for Texas to insure that they get all of the best players from the state.

We need a kick ass Big 12 network... that shows kick ass shit from all of the remaining teams. **** it.

It can't be that expensive to run a network these days.

You know, this whole ordeal has made me hate MU and KSU a little less. And Nebraskans a little more... and Texas a little less. Still don't give a **** about Colorado.

You know what?

Who gives a crap?

Martin Riggs is losing to Snake ****ing Plissken in the damn Herolympics, get over there and vote Riggs.

Read the thread first and you'll know why a vote for Plissken is like a vote against America.

Can't have both... and Texas is running the show. Same as it ever was...

When the games start, you'll hate us as much as ever. After all, it's what we do...

What do you mean "can't have both"? You really think we didn't give up the ghost for a Texas Network, too?

Dude, we're a three-input girlfriend for the Longhorns as of tomorrow, or whenever the ink dries.

I hate you guys less than Nebraska, but only because I hate Nebraska more than I thought possible.

I hate KU as much as I ever have, which is to say only slighly less than Al Qaeda (who I actually prefer over Tom Osborne and the Cornholers).

Oh, I agree. By both, I mean "a kick ass Big 12 network", and Texas having their own. We all know which of those will happen.

Keep the name Big 12. **** Nebraska and Colorado I didn't care much for them anyway.

What could the "Big Ten" TM do if the Big XII renamed themselves to the Big X. That'd be funny.

Rumored by Chip Brown are Air Force and BYU. I've read this page and not the one before it, so if that's a repost, I apologize.
Some "insider" on JayhawkSlant says Arizona and Arizona State might defect, since they are already unhappy in the Pac 10. But that makes next to zero sense, because it would dilute the money coming in to the current schools (and not add enough simply by adding the state to make up for it), and because it would bring back a conference championship game, which Mothership Overlord UT and its ****-buddy OU both hated and wanted rid of. "Insiders" on Rivals, if they aren't the actual publisher, are little more than lonely men making shit up and pretending to protect confidentiality. If any of you are on PowerMizzou, look no further than V-P.

so a decision coming within 15 hours?

So will the Mizzou Sports Network become more powerful under this new conference alignment?

Just now reading the collective beatdown that Billay got. Jesus. If that exchange had happened last week then the Big 10 would not have deemed Nebraska to be academically sufficient for their conference.
