Finebaum was talking to a Geoff Ketchum from 104.9 FM in Austin, then the phone connection became really bad. Ketchum said the meeting was still in progress and seemed to think the conference would stay together, repeated some of what is in that Orangebloods article by Chip Brown.

Plans to talk to the guy some more with a better phone connection later.

The Ketchum guy was back on Finebaum and seems to think it is a done deal. He also owns(?) the Orangebloods.com site and works at an ESPN radio station in Austin. He said a Big 12 North school AD had told him their school had been saved.

Texas still the big dog and would have the most revenue, especially with rights to launch its own network, as all schools could, but Texas would expect to make the most money from that.

And, Gene Stallings indicated today that the league might have been saved. Seems to be a done deal unless if falls through at the last minute, or unless this is some of the most inaccurate reporting ever.
