The rich donor thing is likely bullshit, too. That rumor pops up every time buyouts get mentioned.

Its not a myth at all. Between the two of them, they paid almost $27MM to the big 12. Even if that gets distributed to the schools, you asked if the schools are willing to pay $1MM each, but they really aren't, its still found money. Its basically a big pile of money that gets deposited in everyone's account, earns interest for a few months, then goes out to the ACC.

If it's worth $1,000,000 or whatever to get them, great. Pretending that the money doesn't count because you received a windfall from somewhere else is nonsensical.

Every school would understand that there would be a cost down the road, and that this money is going to defray, or eliminate that liability. Any school that just spends it presuming we'll stay at 10 forever and ever, and then gets surprised by the bill, is a school run by a pack of morons.

This is accurate. It's amazing how little some of you know and yet you post with complete certainty. Neither Mizzou nor A&M paid a penny to the Big 12, nor will they ever. The Big 12 isn't a conference...it's a loose configuration of non-equal parties that is still waiting for the next implosion moment. And don't you love their VERBAL agreement to forfeit TV revenue if one of them leaves!??? What a bunch of morons. |

If the granting of rights becomes official, Texas really doesn't have any leverage.

I know it's been said before in this thread... but it's amazing what happens once someone other than a mouth-breathing moron is placed in charge of the conference.
I'm sure all the shakeup over the past two years also added some urgency and opened doors that would never had been cracked, even if Beebe had wanted to approach them.
