If your T 1/2 media rights are owned by the conference, no one else can put you on TV and you become completely useless to any other conference until those iron chains around your ankles expire. If everyone signs this, then everyone is staying in the Big 12 for 6 years come hell or high water, unless they have the votes to dissolve the conference. The reason why it is 6 years is because presumably the Big 12 will land such a great Tier 1 deal 5 years from now that people will be wondering "so, why were we wanting to leave again?"

As money becomes the hardest driving factor in the aligning of teams in a conference, attorney's will become better at figuring out how to exit without losing a shirt. Remember all the money the Big 12 crowed about getting when Nebraska and Colorado decided to leave? Well, the "settlement" wasn't anything close. The Big 12 won't come anywhere close to a major deal in 5 years. What will be the impetus? Face it....there are only 2 teams in this league that draw any large interest when it would come to National exposure. No network is going to give a big contract to a conference with 2 major players, when it can go looking to the SEC, PAC 12 or Big 10 and really get their money's worth. |

Oh...I am heartbroken Al....
And you'll see my messages...you're no different than anyone else that has someone on ignore. The temptation to look at their post is too great. Your ego won't admit it, but you peek. And then you get pissed...but then you know if you answer then you have to admit that you peeked when you said you wouldn't all along. And FYI....you do have reading comprehension issues. My handle has changed but if you have been around you would remember even my first handle. |

Nothing changes....right? But that still doesn't answer why we believe that the contract for the Big 12 will be that large. Are we assuming that just because the PAC 12 got that big amount we will get a bigger chunk? Doesn't add up...and assumes too many things. |
