Interesting. Seems to me that both ESPN and all the other Big 12 schools would be far better off creating a Big 12 network even if it meant losing Texas to another conference. Can they not see that as soon as Texas finishes strip-mining the conference they are likely leave anyway? A conference network would create a need for new TV markets such as Memphis and Cincinnati.

This is completely untrue. Each school is getting $23 million, with a large chunk of it due to Texas' presence in the conference. Without Texas, the conference is probably halfway between the AAC and the ACC; which would net it somewhere in the neighborhood of $10 million per team, if that. Also, if Texas leaves that would open the door for the Big 12 to have Oklahoma poached.

No other conference needs to add any teams. It's ridiculous to have 12 in my opinion, but 14 or more is ludicrous. If they want to creep into the SEC and BIG markets adding Memphis and Cincy makes sense and gives them 12 and a playoff game.

Baylor, TCU, Iowa State, Texas Tech, Kansas, Kansas State, WVirginia, OkState with OKstate (and maybe Baylor and TCU) being bell cows.

That league wouldn't get much in terms of TV $$$ and it wouldn't be long for it to become a non-P4 conference.

The Big 10, ACC, $EC and Pac-12 all want Texas and OU. And all of them have enough 'room' for them as well.

Yep. I don't get why people can't see this. As soon as Texas and OU are gone the Big 12 becomes Big East/American/CUSA 2.0

Exactly. If Texas leaves then not only does the Big XII lose it's most valuable program it most likely loses someone else, like OU, and the Big XII can't keep losing their big names - the conference is shaky already. I say that if UT and OU leave the conference could disband entirely.

If somehow the conference had lost Texas instead of, say, Colorado as one of the first schools to go the Big XII could have survived the loss - they may have been able to keep TAMU, a school as big as it's in-state sister school, brought in TCU to keep the conference at 12 schools, or perhaps brought in an outside school like a BYU or Memphis to continue to try to grow markets, and then possibly restructured the Tiered payout system that is killing morale. But no, UT is deadset on keeping all the money, even if it means not growing, or even lessening, the pot.

Each school does NOT get equal share of $23 mil! If you believe that,then you believe that JP will get us to an E8

There always has to be one dumb shot at Pastner that has nothing to do with anything. There was actually a decent conversation going on here. No surprise it comes from the genius that gave us the breaking news on Nichols.

And while you're at it, do you have a link to back up how much each school makes or is this another case of your genius brain inventing stuff on its own?

Yes they do. You might be getting confused with tier 3 media revenue which is individually sold (thus Texas' LHN) on the open market. As far as I know all current B12 members are in full revenue sharing at the conference level.

And if I had to guess at it I think that's the most likely barring the unforeseen --- Texas and Oklahoma gone for greener money and Memphis and Cincinnati get B12 invites for their markets and geography.

Well, I must be crazy, because I believe both that they don't get an equal share AND that Josh Pastner will take Memphis to a Final Four. So there.

I believe they don't get an equal share and that Memphis's chances for the Final Four next year are better than about 320 of Division 1 schools.

Ok "smartguy" here we go. A&M bolting from BIGXII is because of discrepancies of the overall payouts of BIGXII revenues. The Sooners are also contimplating deflection away from Texas, as there's contigencies in the Longhorn Network bias media contract that heavily, let me say that again HEAVILY leverages The Longhorns. ....

"1st Texas will get about $11,000,000 a year from the network. And that number will increase by 3% annually until ESPN gets its money back from the original investment, at which point Texas' revenues from the network will rise significantly."

"But once that revenue reaches $295 million and ESPN recoups its investment, Texas will begin to receive 70% of the adjusted gross revenue."

'Its essentially a lot of words and numbers that can be paraphrased with "We're Texas, and we're more important than the rest of you."

There are two additional disturbing provisions; UT selects all "on air" personnel, and they must always speak positively on behalf of the Horns or they could find themselves banished from programming period!

UT is also in negotiations with ESPN & NCAA to provide coverage of High school sports.....This would be a huge advantage in recruiting A&M and Sooners want no part of....

Also,even if UT Football announces an "independent" Status. ....The University still receives complete compensation from this isolation while the football will be allowed to restructure a completely separate deal.......

So Texas gets more money than the other Big 12 members from the LHN? Incredible news. This is even more genius than your breaking news on AN.

Ladies, ladies, ladies....you're both pretty.

Bottom line is that most people view Texas having the LHN and it's revenue all to itself as inherently unfair, especially when it comes at the expense of a possible Big XII network.

The question is does the way Texas does business hurt them in the long run, and I tend to think it could.

I remember when Notre Dame got it's exclusive deal with NBC and everyone who was neutral on the Irish (and some who liked them) immediately came to hate them because they viewed that deal as inherently selfish and fundamentally unfair. I have to think that having your own TV station could also do that,and even more so, and a public university and it's sports program like Texas could take a major hit in it's grassroots support among Texans who maybe didn't go there but want a college team to root for. It could absolutely cause them to lose a significant amount of money, support, and recruiting battles, to say nothing of destabilizing their own conference, increased competition from A&M and the SEC, and opponents that nobody cares about.

Comparing Pastner to RC AND defending RC. Incredible, even by your standards.

Bottom line is that most people view Texas having the LHN and it's revenue all to itself as inherently unfair, especially when it comes at the expense of a possible Big XII network.

The question is does the way Texas does business hurt them in the long run, and I tend to think it could.

I remember when Notre Dame got it's exclusive deal with NBC and everyone who was neutral on the Irish (and some who liked them) immediately came to hate them because they viewed that deal as inherently selfish and fundamentally unfair. I have to think that having your own TV station could also do that,and even more so, and a public university and it's sports program like Texas could take a major hit in it's grassroots support among Texans who maybe didn't go there but want a college team to root for. It could absolutely cause them to lose a significant amount of money, support, and recruiting battles, to say nothing of destabilizing their own conference, increased competition from A&M and the SEC, and opponents that nobody cares about.

EVERYBODY in the B12 has its tier 3 media revenue "all to itself". They all could negotiate their own value and do. NO television network is interested in a B12 network package for tier 3 media and olympic sports coverage, because >95% of the value in tier 3 B12 TV programing is Texas and OU.

Paul Finebaum Called Texas A&M “The New Power Program” In Texas

Currently, there are five teams from “Power 5″ conferences in the state of Texas – Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, TCU and Baylor. Historically, it’s clear that the Longhorns, with 881 victories, four national titles, 27 bowl wins and two Heisman Trophy winners, are the most accomplished of the bunch. If you’re looking for present-day domination, both Baylor and TCU, which finished 5-6 in the College Football Playoff standings last year, are the programs seemingly ruling the state at the moment. ESPN’s Paul Finebaum, however, thinks that the current “power program” in the state is Texas A&M

I would expect nothing less from that SEC shill.

If Texas leaves then not only does the Big XII lose it's most valuable program it most likely loses someone else, like OU, and the Big XII can't keep losing their big names - the conference is shaky already. I say that if UT and OU leave the conference could disband entirely.

If somehow the conference had lost Texas instead of, say, Colorado as one of the first schools to go the Big XII could have survived the loss - they may have been able to keep TAMU, a school as big as it's in-state sister school, brought in TCU to keep the conference at 12 schools, or perhaps brought in an outside school like a BYU or Memphis to continue to try to grow markets, and then possibly restructured the Tiered payout system that is killing morale. But no, UT is deadset on keeping all the money, even if it means not growing, or even lessening, the pot.

Each school does NOT get equal share of $23 mil! If you believe that,then you believe that JP will get us to an E8

There always has to be one dumb shot at Pastner that has nothing to do with anything. There was actually a decent conversation going on here. No surprise it comes from the genius that gave us the breaking news on Nichols.

And while you're at it, do you have a link to back up how much each school makes or is this another case of your genius brain inventing stuff on its own?

I'm sure you prefer the shot at RC for "scheduling" a game at Bowling Green.

Comparing Pastner to RC AND defending RC. Incredible, even by your standards.

LMAO

Reading comp still an issue with you? RC was gone when we inked the BG deal. But keep up the stalking. Somewhere out there MissJ is proud of you.

After four years the Longhorn Network is still just doing $25.8 million a year in revenue. (Putting that number in a sports TV context, the Longhorn Network is on pace to do less revenue in 20 years than Mayweather-Pacquiao did in one night of pay-per-view boxing.)


Texas arrogance has been their undoing
