[QUOTE="Virginia Frog, post: 3032541, member: 4959"] Please explain to me this AAC business considering the following: 1) UT & OU go to the SEC on Jul 1, 2025. They are committed to the "leftover" 8 until that time, right? 2) There are no forthcoming, now or maybe ever, P4/5 offers to any of the the leftovers. Why do we do ANYTHING at all? Can UT/OU unilaterally just up and leave before the end of our B12 contract unless we say so? Can't we freeze them in place? If they pay us a premium to leave early for the SEC - I get it - we take the money and move forward for whatever year we agree. We then backfill and the AAC/MWC/BYU is our hunting ground. (and choose schools that ensure greater distance from the leftover ACCs and MWC/as the #4 or #5 best conference (#4 because we may prove to be a BETTER fb and bb conference than the Pac-12 in the final analysis.) We then negotiate TV/media deals going forward with our new line-up of schools 10 or 12. Yep, lesser $...that's life! We still have a guaranteed path to the playoffs in fb, and a stout bb league. That's it. This AAC raid is nonsense. Our money would be much diminished in such a case. [/QUOTE]
