I don’t think many programs care as much about winning anymore as they do about money.
If this happens, who does the big 12 add or does the conference die? Possible replacements are Houston, Cincinnati, UCF Boise, BYU or etc
If this were to be the case, I can see TCU, TT, OSU, Kst,CU, AZ, AZst, Utah in a division and USC, UCLA, Cal, Ore.st, Ore, Wash, Wash st, Stanford in the other division.TCU, Tech, OSU, and K State will be joining the Pac 16 if this happens. Looks like aggy is trying to throw a wrench in the gears but I don't think that the big brothers in the SEC will let them stop this. ISU and Kansas to the B1g and WVU to ACC. Baylor to the Mountain West.
Follow the money is all you need to know. One thing going for us is our DFW market size and recruiting access. Does that buy us much?
Feels like posturing to me to try and get a bigger share of the money from the b12 when the next deals are written.
Rutgers delivers the NYC tv market...allegedly.It’s the right move for Texas and ou. I’m still pro big ten. We have to be more valuable than Rutgers and Maryland.
Join ranks?College sports inching closer and closer to pro sports with worse players. And I’m inching closer and closer having it join ranks with things that I used to care about like the Olympics, the NBA, and to some degree the NFL.
Certainly TCU's program fits that description.I don’t think many programs care as much about winning anymore as they do about money.
This exact thing could have been said about TCU before we went into the B12 which supposedly was better for us financially but was unquestionably worse for us from a competitive and fan standpoint. But schools don't care about the latter becuase they don't get paid based on providing a good competitive or fan experiencewhen the next big change in college football conferences happen two schools that don't have to worry about being left without a chair are ou and texas so why jump to a conference where you are swimming damn hard upstream each season
