I’m asking because it has been proposed that ESPN/ABC is overpaying the B12 thru 2031 to facilitate Texas and OU leaving to the SEC. Evidence to support that would be if Fox were not paying more than before. I can’t understand why every report of the B12 contract states the combined amount the two different companies pay, when obviously they are two separate contracts. 

They're not overpaying to facilitate the move.    The move was facilitated by Fox getting Michigan/Texas.   Most reports are that after the Pac decided to go to market, the B12 accepted a discount to lock in more slots and marketing.

I mean, this is what our stadium looked like at the end of the Big 8 and for a few more years into the Big 12. We had piss troughs that were spray painted before each season to cover up the stains. Pat Jones has said that on campus visits included the entire campus, except the stadium.

Whoever designed the wall that close to the field when the stadium was that size needs to be shot by Pistol Pete in the parking lot.

It does, all the season ticket holders got it for free too, but, like yours, someone paid for it - even if it was bought in bulk on a discount.

Ourand is reporting that at least close to half of them are free.

I don’t like the thought of giving Deion an entry into Texas HS recruiting. 

He's gonna be at CU for less than 5 years, and they probably won't be in the Big 12 until '25 anyhow.

The Pac is officially dead. SDSU not leaving the MWC should have been a good sign this was coming. The Big 12 adding Colorado, Utah, and the two Arizonas to get to 16 seems like the most logical at this point

And now, your stadium is the worst in the B12, with dangerously small sidelines, endangering players on and off the field. 
 
I don’t intend to be insulting, but just stating a fact. 

It isnt that bad.

Where they gonna go? They don't bring enough money for the B1G or SEC IMO (and I'm a Buffs fan - did my MS there).

Prime will not be at CU long.

Assuming CU announces they’re joining the Big 12 this week, I assume they have 2 more seasons in Pac

Cal? If they'd be willing to slum it below their perceived opinions of themselves, they'd be a solid get for the Big 12. Wazzu and Oregon State add next to nothing.

Per a Utah radio show host live on YT right now that team is Oregon State and that the Big 12 wants to take a group of teams. 

 

He's also saying Oregon, Oregon State, and Arizona scheduling board meetings for this week.

Have a hard time believing that Oregon State is going to get an invite. They offer little.

Ignore me. I was reading too fast and thought you were saying CU wouldn't be in the Big XII until '35.

Does this cause the B1G to make a move for some Pac-12 schools? If there is a panic exit situation, does the B1G offer Oregon & Washington rather than letting them sign a  contract with the Big 12? Maybe grab Stanford as well, and tell ND joining with us is your only chance to play teams like Stanford & USC going forward?

There's something really shitty with a bottom feeder like Colorado, who has jumped from 2 conferences in under 15 years, having a landing spot and Oregon and Washington being left in a dying conference.

Maybe the other team is Oregon? I could see BIG telling them it’s not happening and they prefer UW and Stanford. Cal too if ND joins.

Oregon is definitely a take for the Big 10. Oregon, Washington, Utah, and ND would all fit their AAU standards.

CU was consistently the #3 TV draw in the old Big 8. Mizzou was consistently the #4 TV draw in the old Big 8. Do the PAC and SEC have warm feelings when they tuck in at night, secure that they nabbed the Buffs and Tigers? I don’t know that being the #3 in the B12 is such a big deal, with TAMU, NU, CU and Mizzou gone  

 

 
 

Like the old Bill Hicks bit about the Gulf War and how everyone was worried about Iraq having the world's 4th largest army. 

"After the first three, it a pretty big fucking drop-off."

They can join the Big 12 at any time.
