I was learning a great deal from it. You and KC_Connection have been fantastic teachers of late. Braincase has even stepped in to teach us the intricacies of lessons learned coaching middle-school girls basketball to gauge the appropriate effort of division one basketball teams using nothing but the box scores!
The knowledge you fellas are dropping on us these last several days has just made us all demonstrably better for your efforts. Thank you, Beakers - thank you so very much for all that which you have bestowed upon us.

Well....
I'm no lawyer, so.
But when I have been referencing that the Big XII is now better off without MU and A&M while adding WVU and TCU I was speaking more towards the level of play on the field. I can't speak for Neinas but I can definitely see how the conference is hurt based on regional population and television sets.
So I don't think that it's as cut and dry as saying that Missouri and Texas A&M's actions cannot be held as financially damaging to the member institutions. Although the far superior football program, West Virginia doesn't boast nearly the population that Missouri does. Now can the increased level of football play offset this by making future television contracts more valuable? Maybe... that is what the Big XII needs to figure out if in fact it's worth going after additional funds in regards to the University of Missouri and Texas A&M.
We'll just have to wait and see.
