Thoguh posted:Actually didn't Iowa get legit mad about that cable channel and declare they were going to start their own even though the Big Ten Network owns all their rights? Did that ever get off the ground? Pretty sure this is not a thing that happened, no. All of Iowa's games are broadcast on real tv networks so we don't need one guy in the press box wildly flailing around with a blurry webcam to watch the team play.

The best solution is for the Big 12 to kick out KSU after Snyder retires and then invite Cincy.

I think the Big 12 will take Cincy and UConn. This by the way basically destroys the American since they'll lose their title game and their TV deal.

I doubt the Big XII expands. UT is still against it. TTU is against it. I'm sure some of the old northern schools are against it. They might get a transition on conference network stuff, but I bet the Big XII stands pat.

If OU gets fed up with the Big 12's poo poo and leaves for another conference (not that they would, or could) would Texas stay put in the Big 12, or would they try to follow OU?

Are you asking if Texas would follow OU to the same conference after OU left of their same accord? No. Texas might leave shortly thereafter because the writing would be on the wall at that point, but I can't imagine them going the same place as OU, because a) pride and b) the SEC is the only conference I could see taking OU as a standalone, and Texas is never joining the SEC.

And once you add their tier 3 rights they are on par with any conference they might run to. If they follow through on this they're following the A&M and Nebraska pattern of bitching about situations they helped create and using that as an excuse to bolt. Mostly though, at this point, it seems like Boren spouting off for the sake of getting his name in the press. He's gonna die on the sword of a dieing industry with his conference network schtik.

I enjoy how this situation somehow forces you to become a de facto Texas fan. Oh no, it isn't Texas's fault, it's those dirty Aggies and Huskers. To be fair gently caress both of those fan bases but you know what I mean.

The big schools that left were just as against equal revenue sharing and everything else as Texas was. I'm not defending Texas. I'm just noticing that Oklahoma is acting similar to how those two schools, who also got bigger than average pieces of the pie, acted. They don't care that everything isn't equal. They care that the unequal setup, which they benefit from greatly, doesn't benefit them more than anybody else. Thoguh fucked around with this message at 15:09 on Feb 20, 2016 |

The cuurent pie in the sky for the Vandals is the Big Sky forming into two "tiers" wherein half will move into FBS for football, and others will remain for FCS or not have football (Like Sac State) but will stay together for the Olympic sports? I have no idea how it would actually work or be allowed by the NCAA, but that's what the Vandal faithful are whispering of.
