No it will never happen. The SEC network is going to be a cash cow and making a single school network would negate the impact the SEC network will have.

Plus, the LHN is proving how terrible the concept and implementation was. Much of their fanbase is very fairweather. You need a fanbase like Alabama or Notre Dame to really pull something like that off. Even then, it would be nothing compared to what is about to come.

Major TV execs were quoted as saying "1 or 2 football games a year doesn't make a 24 hour network." The whole thing would work if it were a big 12 channel and had more content that people gave a shite about other than 2 shitty 3rd tier Texas football games.
