I said it before and I'll say it again: Rice and New Mexico. "But, but, but... They don't bring anything to the BIGXII!" Au contraire! They bring one-two wins to every other Conference mate who plays them (with the exception of Rape U., of course). The SEC has beater schools, the B1G has beater schools, why not us?
"But nobody wants to split the pot!" It's not like these guys aren't desperate or anything. They'll sign anything we slide in front of them if it means they'll be in a by G-hod Big Boy Conference. 10 year gradual increases until they get full shares, starting at 10%? Why not! If it means Kansas might actually be Bowl Eligible, we'd all cash checks that would equal that payout, and they'd be giddy to take it.
