ChiefsPlanet - Other Sports Big 10 Report: Conference Realignment

I just heard on 810 so take it for what its worth: The Pac 10 was trying to switch OSU with KU at that last minute and Texas didn't like this so that's why they decided to stay.

Chip Brown reported this which is where they got it from. He said this was one of the things that caused Texas to reconsider.

710 was reporting that KSU might get the call, but the negative was that they were chained to KU.

There are newspaper articles in Lincoln and Omaha saying NU could go to court over the exit penalty.

Cool. And after they lose they'll have to pick up the legal fees that Texas accrues.

Couldn't beat em on the field. Won't beat em in the courtroom.

NU and CU shouldn't have to pay anything. Dan Beebe came up with a bunch of money this past weekend after both of them left. The Big 12 obviously doesn't need more money. Several Big 12 people have even said NU and CU didn't hurt the conference by leaving.

Well, this could be entertaining.

Why? Did the league dissolve? Was there a signed contract about the penalties an institution would incur should it leave the conference?

We're about to take our newly polished Longhorn for a spin and let it treat Nebraska and Colorado like a froglight.

This is about damages, and NU and CU didn't damage the conference by leaving.
