The University gets to keep the Longhorn Network, but may have to kick some money to lesser teams in the Pac 16.
And Texas, OU, OSU, etc will get to keep the Aggies 22 million dollars for quitting the Big 12.
Win/Win!
Maybe so, maybe not.
If there is no Big 12 (take that, Baylor), there may be no exit penalty. And if the four schools mentioned choose to kill the Big 12, won’t they get to pay, too?
Lotsa legal maneuvering to come.
Syracuse and Pitt with the ACC.
I hope they don't deduct points for geographic locations. heh
How far are those schools in Texas and Oklahoma from the Pacific Ocean?
UT covets the Pac 12 ‘cause they have the richest TV contract in like forever. GO HUSKIES.
Actually I was quite happy with the Pacific Coast Conference.
I heard Texas tried to get into the ACC but the ACC would not budge on revenue sharing. Texas wants to keep its money AND be in a “super conference”. I wonder which conference will blink first.
Put a fork in the Big 12, it’s done.
Let see.... the Texas teams will have to wait up till 9pm to watch half their conference games. That’s smart. /s
Other than they have to play teams on the left coast.
Sounds like a great move.

Longhorns are making a huge mistake. Calif is dead, in Real Estate, economy & football. Most decent playes now go NW. The PAC is done. If Texas wants to play real football, they’ll go to the SEC & keep the Thanksgiving game alive. As a Longhorn fan in A&M territory, I can definitely see 5 Star Texas recruits going to A&M to play in the SEC.
