Among the TCU and high school restrictions, I missed this rather important LHN concession:
Quote:
And there are new provisions for a school carrying more than one of its own football games on its network; it must obtain league permission, and the participating schools would give up their shares of league-wide network proceeds from the game.

That pretty well wraps up the concerns about ESPN perhaps having a conflict of interest and causing a UT game to fall to tier 3. They have to get permission from the conference to show more than 1 conference game, and even if they do get permission, both schools forfeit any claim to proceeds from that game. So basically "UT wants to show a 2nd conference game on LHN and the school they are playing is fine with it? OK fine, but we're taking the money and neither school gets a cut of that game"
That pretty well solves just about every major concern about school networks.
