Never heard of Texas proposing a Big 12 network. Pretty sure that's revisionist history.
Texas did propose a Lonestar Network in partnership with A&M. Revenues were to be split 2/3 to Texas, 1/3 to A&M.
A&M told them to frick off.

A&M was too poor to front the startup costs. Deloss very reasonably said we’ll front 100% of the costs but we’ll take a bigger piece of the pie in that case. A&M balked. So we did things on our own.
