[quote]*Texas A&M also expects the Big 12 to negotiate the exist fee down from $30 Million quickly. (I'm sure the Big12 will get right on that..)[/quote]
The big 12 exit fees are not set like that, and no way would it be $30 million considering they distribute around ~20 million to the big school...

[quote]But I think there is what, a 4 year statute of limitations? If so, then all the illegal activity done in the mid 2000's may escape scrunity. In that senario, they appear to avoid a hell of a lot of damage, but still enough to probably level the most severe penalties we have seen since SMU, bu...

It's financially beneficial to those teams, because most of them would never get invited to another AQ conference.
The big 12 was set up to starve the poor and fatten the rich, because, teams like ISU, or Kansas State didn't have the support of a Texas, OU, or Nebraska. Fine, they'd accepted the...

You're right, Texas is great. Invite them to your conference and keep them far away from ours.
Please,

I imagine it had to do with the BCS, TV, and Texas's population. Same things that drive expansion now, just not nearly as much money involved.
Nebraska also didn't control the old big 8 like Texas does the big 12 now. So it wasn't really in a position to control switching the big 8 to the big 1...
re: What happens to the Big 12 (-2) if another team leaves?
Posted by huskers9 on 8/14/11 at 8:48 am
They'll survive until they lose Missouri or start looking at a new TV contract in 5 years or whatever.
Missouri is the last team left with close (potential) BCS conference options.
ND isn't joining any conference, let alone a dying big 12. Texas likes to throw Arkansas out there as potentia...

Everyone does see it.
What people dreaming of a schedule playing Iowa State, Kansas State, Baylor and Kansas in football don't seem to realize is this:

Probably not until a failed attempt at independence forces them to drop all ties with ESPN and beg for admittance into a conference without a list of demands.
Or so we can all hope. It's far more likely they work out a...

Dear lord this is wishful thinking.

pretty sure a conference already tried the 20 team thing and it didn't work so well... Which is why the accepted golden number seems to be 16.
It's hard to remember who with all the conference stuff going on....

Then just laugh to yourself and realize that if a game comes down to the wire you've probably got a better than 50/50 chance at it with your coach. Who else could say that in the SEC?...

I don't know how anyone could say that luck isn't part of what Miles brings at this point. That's not an insult, he's just won more then his share of would be losses by the skin of his teeth luck at this point. It's exciting.
If some of his luck would have rubbed off on Bo, Nebraska wouldn't ha...

You are a complete moron.
Nebraska wasn't looking into it's own network so it could strong arm the conference members in moving conference games on it to make it succeed nor would they have had the backing of the monopoly network player in CFB to help it do so. Nor would it have likely been in t...

No they aren't, they are probably a little overly-optimistic about where they'd fit in a new league, but who wouldn't be.
If they are convinced of anything it seems to be that dealing with Te...
