  1. Even so, it looks like tOSU basically confirmed it: If this was because of Washington moving to the Big Ten, tOSU would not be paying the liquidated damages.
  2. Some speculation is that it is because tOSU does not want two West Coast trips in one year.
  3. Almost assuredly unrelated to realignment, but fun to speculate.
  4. Q - How much of my contribution will go to Texas A&M student-athletes? A - Fuck if we know. We have a lot of overhead and expenses. Hopefully some of it will make it to student athletes. Why even include this in the Q&A?
  5. It would be pretty shocking if Auburn did not have both Alabama and Georgia as two of their permanent rivals.
  6. It's because the Texas-Bama game is the end of a nonconference home-and-home series, while the UGA-OU game is the first in a series that was scheduled to be completed in 2031. If they played the game as scheduled, the SEC would lose out, as the first game was at OU, so the Big 12 would get the benefits of the game, while the 2031 game would just be a normal SEC game.
  7. They’re not doing pods, but it’s not as wrong as you suggest. While it’s true that A&M has played LSU more than OU, LSU has played the two Mississippi schools and Alabama a lot more than A&M. Similarly, while Arkansas has more history with LSU and Ole Miss than OU, Ole Miss has played Miss State, LSU, and Vandy way more than Arkansas. Obviously they cannot just match up the teams that have played the most, because that is often not true for both sides of each “rivalry.”
  8. Obviously, the key will be whether the schools are forced to sign a grant of rights in order to get a deal done.
  9. I have a hard time imagining Auburn is getting Florida along with Bama and UGA. That's rough.
  10. It’s because we need to split up the 50 million into two years to avoid getting no money this year. Some of it will be withheld from the Big 12 payment for 2013 and the rest from the SEC payment in 2014. 40 million or that will go to the 8 leftovers and 10 million to fox. We should make up the lost money by 2016 or 2017 from the increased payment in the SEC.
  11. Anyone have access to this? https://theathletic.com/4171699/2023/02/09/college-football-realignment-pac-12-smu-big-12/.
  12. https://catalog.utsa.edu/policies/tuitionfees/mandatorysemesterfees/mandatorysemesterfees.pdf
  13. The AAU may not include any religious institutions, although that is probably because those universities do not tend to be top research universities. However, the AAU includes a ton of private universities.
  14. So that's what happened to Tom Herman...
  15. My understanding is that it is a grant of rights and not a promise to grant rights in the future, meaning those rights no longer belong to us. Thus, it would be us or the SEC having to sue the Big 12 to get those rights back. Otherwise, the Big 12’s broadcast partners would be broadcasting our home games, even if we’re playing an SEC schedule.
  16. My understanding is that Texas and OU forfeit two years of media rights income either way, but if they leave before the grant of rights is over, they have to try to buy those rights back from the Big 12.
  17. Why do people keep citing this idiot as if he knows something?
  18. Apparently he's getting $4.5 million in the first year.
  19. One thing I have not seen many people mention is the fact that USC and UCLA are joining the Big Ten in 2024. I can see Fox wanting to have that be the biggest story for that season, thus not allowing Texas and OU to move until later.
  20. The problem is the grant of rights. The Big 12 owns our TV rights for 2024 and do not have to sell them back to us unless they want to, and they likely do not want to unless it makes both Fox and the Big 12 money.
  21. It's apparently a one year mission, so he will enroll fall 2024.
  22. Obviously Mitchell is not going to be on the Texas basketball roster next year because Terry Joseph is convincing him to play in our secondary. Can you imagine how good he would be on 50/50 jump balls?
