The other Big 12 schools don't like money now?
BTN has proven that it is much more lucrative overall to pool tier 2 or 3 rights together and market them as a package to broadcasters, rather than having each school try to market their own tier 3 rights.
This is why the PAC and SEC are following in their footsteps, and it is why the Big 12 will continue to fall behind the pack in terms of overall conference TV revenue.
