That doesn't answer my question. With media changing so rapidly, Texas made a perfectly acceptable decision to try this out, and Alabama would have as well.

Some media decisions work out well, and some don't. It's still too early to tell the long term impact of the LHN. I certainly don't think it is going to be significant for Texas. And maybe not even the Big12. No doubt it will be used as justification for decisions that schools make. That's the way business works.


It's not too early to tell the immediate impacts. You have President from another University in your conference openly calling it toxic. It's setting the Big 12 Conference behind in revenue. Y'all are the dumbest smart kids I know.

Exactly. Long-term, if it breaks up the conference and hurts the brand and other revenue streams, then it is a net loss.

I don't know if it will or not, but it clearly has the potential to.

Well, at least A&M hasn't diluted its diplomas enough so that Aggies don't know the difference between long term and short term. Congrats.
