I think all parties involved with breakup of the 2010 big12 were selfish and foolish. Currently you would have to say the only schools that have benefitted from the foolishness are A&M, Mizzou, Baylor, and TCU.

You are absolutely correct, but it got that way because self interest ruled the B12, and Texas lead the conference in self interest. It's pulled back some, but only after the damage was done.

B12 could have been one of the first to have a network, but instead opted towards school driven networks. Huge bad move. Weiberg said it was impossible to get 9 votes for anything.

UT's approach to handling B10 poaching was to use a hammer and threats to fellow members.
