The big 12 only needs 6 teams for a vote to dissolve the grant of rights, if 4 more teams can find a P5 home I'm sure this thing gets resolved within a year and we're discussing OU and Texas SEC openers for Fall of 2023 at the latest.

No those other teams are going to wait and take the buyout $$$. Like the Big East did to West Virginia.

If the left behind 8 can't find new homes, they will hold Texas and OU to their agreement. $100 million for an early exit is not likely to sway them to move up the date of their execution.
